EN: This stone wayside cross is somewhat hidden between a few bushes in the agricultural zone between Obermumpf and Stein. The place is called Chatzenflueh and is located on the crest of the hill that separates the two villages.

The cross is about three meters high and very simple in design. In the center hangs a small metal figure of Jesus and in the foundation is a small marble plaque embedded with the barely legible inscription "Holy Year 1950".
