EN: This somewhat unusual wayside cross in Gipf-Oberfrick stands at the junction of Müligass and Landstrasse in a garden.
The stone cross is about three and a half meters high and has a rather abstract Jesus figure, which is not mounted but hewn from the same stone. The cross carries no inscriptions. I could find no other information, stylistically it fits in the 1960s.
