Description    Deutsch  ·  English

On a fateful day in August 1685 AD, a Mr. Lebküchner from Schweinfurt is said to have been murdered at these coordinates. A conciliation cross was erected here in his memory. Unfortunately, the left crossbeam of the cross was lost at some point in the past. Although the beam was replaced during renovation work, the actual inscription on it could not be restored:
