In front of the cemetery entrance gate stands this processional altar made of sandstone, according to the inscription from the year 1720. On a table base with an inscription cartouche stands a canopy supported by columns, the back wall of which is adorned with a relief of the Coronation of Mary. On the roof of the canopy stands a figure of Jesus with a crown of thorns, a so-called Ecce Homo representation, after the exclamation of Pontius Pilate, who presented the prisoner Jesus of Nazareth to the Jewish people: "Behold, the man", in Latin "Ecce Homo".
