Only a few meters from the three-crest stone, you will find the Kreuzfelsen. After a short, cable-insured Kraxelpassage, you will stand on top of the rock next to the monumental Jesus Cross and enjoy a great view over the Bavarian Forest.

Three Coats of Arms

Highlight • Monument

On a rock you will find the coats of arms of the Kingdom of Bohemia, the Electorate of Bavaria and the Duchy of Palatinate. After decades of disputes about the exact course of the border, an agreement was finally reached in 1754. To commemorate this and to mark the border, the three coats of arms were carved into the stone.

May 16, 2024,Gibacht - Grenzsteig - Glaskreuz - Leuchtturm der Menschlichkeit ☀️🐾

According to the plan, it was about 400-500 meters in altitude. The transfer from Garmin to Komoot always adds something to that. After yesterday's climb to Cerchov, today's tour was even more strenuous.
