In some of the niches in the part there are coloured paintings of Jesus and his mother Mary.The wayside shrine is roofed with red shingles and at the top of the roof is the typical elements of these buildings, aa iron cross. In this case, it is a simple, three-armed, so-called Papal cross, which in this case means that the owner of the estate was under papal protection.
