EN: This cross is located in a covered niche next to the former ossuary at the southern edge of the Herznach churchyard cemetery. It dates from 1706 and originally contained a crucifixion group and a panorama of the city of Jerusalem on the walls, probably painted by Edward Öhling. Since the renovation in 1971/72, a simple wooden cross and a Pietà by Ferdinand Stufflesser have stood here.

Seit der Sanierung 1971/72 stehen hier ein schlichtes Holzkreuz und eine Pietà von Ferdinand Stufflesser.
