The Plentl Cross, visible from afar, at the junction to the Brünnl Church, is on a ledge above the Naab Valley. At the top of the rock is a wide view of the country and the Naab valley. An iron cross about seven meters high with a golden figure of Christ owes its creation at the end of the last century to the miraculous healing of the district veterinarian Julius Plentl after nine years of blindness. The doctor had trusted the healing power of the Brünnl spring and repeatedly washed his eyes in it. The source at the chapel contains radion. But be careful on the rock! Danger of falling
