architecture
The grave cross is a cross made of Liedberg sandstone 22 cm deep and 63 cm wide from the year 1712. The visible side is the actual back of the cross. On the front facing away is the inscription " IHS " at the top , and at the bottom the image of a skull with two horizontal bones underneath. The inscription is weathered and difficult to decipher. On the facing back of the grave cross there is a cross with handicraft ornaments such as pliers, hammer, rivets and nails under the cross and knuckle and leather whip placed across it.
The cross is of artistic and ethnological importance and therefore worth preserving as a monument.
