To the endowment of the cross old documents exist. The founder Johannes Hindelang was a baker and brewer of the abbey Heisterbach.
The cross is station six of the "Oberdollendorfer Bittweg". The road cross from andesite exists of a foot plate with a bipartite base and an altar plate with console.
The cross is well preserved and the inscription is legible.
