Cairn and crucifix erected by the Germans at the entrance, from the east, of their city. It sits on the edge of a vineyard for the Hermanhoff Winery today.
The original purpose was a waycross for the local to pray as they traveled into and out of the city.
Oral from a local that it was built in the 19th century
