Teli-Kreuz and young team

Also in the case of a death in the parish of St. Niklaus , the cross lights up in devotion to the deceased person until they are carried to the grave.
The mighty cross was erected in 1950 by the youth team on the Teli-Tschuggu ( Tschuggu Valais German for rocks ). Since then, a memorial ceremony has been held on the Maiensäss every five years. In 1964 the cross was provided with electrical lighting.
