On my way to the Celtic sacral object Bělčice I found a little bonus. Situated south of the ancient fortress and just by the main road, stands a bit damaged medieval propitiatory cross. Cross is made of hard sandstone and has about 80cm in height. In last century was found on the field ploughed under and placed to its current position.
