Near the south end of village Vršce (East Bohemia), behind St Lawrence Church (kostel sv. Vavrince) and in front of wooden belfry one can find a beatifull pillar wayside shrine made of sandstone. According to style of engraved letters and style, how the Patrons Saint engraved in upper part of the Wayside Shrine are depicted, the shrine comes probably from Late Baroque (sometimes from 1750-1800). Unfortunately, there are no more detailed informations of the Shrine. The wayside shrine has been recently renovated.
