A very rare medieval cross in Moravia.


A very rare medieval cross in Moravia.

In medieval times, it was situated in places of some murder. Usually the sinner had to pay to the family of victim and rise the stone cross on that place. In Europe survived just few - in France and Moravia. They are called "smířčí kříž" - Klahanie, how is it in English?
