EN: This stone cross is located at the intersection of a dirt road near the railway line west of Laufenburg.
The simple cross is not dated but looks quite old. During my visit it was protected with planks from the machines of the neighboring construction site. Maybe also the Jesus figure was temporarily removed for this; in any case, there are mounts that would be suitable for this purpose.

Das einfache Kreuz ist nicht datiert, sieht aber ziemlich alt aus. Bei meinem Besuch war es mit Planken vor den Maschinen der benachbarten Baustelle geschützt. Möglicherweise wurde dafür auch die Jesusfigur temporär entfernt; es gibt jedenfalls Befestigungen, die dafür geeignet wären.
