CZ: Na pískovcovém podstavci stála do roku 1973 socha sv. Judy Tadeáše zakoupená roku 1788 místním rolníkem Františkem Drvotou z kláštera na Bílé hore. Zchátralou sochu v roce 1973 smetla z podstavce detonace pri rozstrelování kopek chlévské mrvy místním JZD.
V roce 2015 byl na prázdný sokl instalován litinový kríž.
