Stone Cross Jindřichovice
Stone Cross Jindřichovice submitted by ladrin : The stone cross of Jindřichovice. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Ancient Cross in Bohemia
Quite tall cross made of hard sandstone has almost 1,5m in height. This partly damaged medieval monument seems to be combination of a latin and knight cross. There is no visible decoration or carving on its surface.

The stone cross is not mentioned in old records and also any informations about the origin is missing. Equally there is no local folk tale related. The cross is easy to find. It is standing next to the communication tower SE of the village.
