=========================================================
V katastru obce je celkem 11 krížu a 1 sousoší, z nichž 5 je postaveno uvnitr obce a 7 mimo obec. Toto je nejstarší a nejpamátnejší kríž v obci. Daroval jej v roce 1766 majetný pan Florián z Újezdu, pocházející ze Žatcan. Je celý z mušlového vápence a jako umelecko-historická památka z doby raného baroka je památkove chránen. Naposledy byl odborne restaurován v r. 1996 akademickým socharem Martinem Kovaríkem ze Svratky.
