The stone mission cross stands at the entrance to the village of Planes. It belongs to the so-called "cruces de término", i.e. path or boundary crosses, which were formerly erected at important paths or village entrances. The cross stands on a base with four steps, on which religious depictions can be seen. Such mission crosses were often erected at the end of the 16th century during church missions and were intended to mark the beginning of a Christian place and symbolize a religious protective function for the community.
