"Rebuilt in the 20th century, it is interesting for its symbolism. With construction date of the XIX century. Base with three steps. Square section pedestal with sliced ??inscriptions where you can still read “de San Juan Bautista, Barbadanes”. Shaft with a square section at the beginning that becomes octagonal. Capital with volutes, and four carved faces, one for each cardinal point. Cross with a crucified christ to the west and a virgin to the east."
