It's worth taking a look inside here, but unfortunately it's a bit dark.

According to legend, a troop of soldiers coming from Berka, who had broken away and were plundering, were killed here and buried in the former hill. Another tradition tells of two sons of one of the Tonndorf castle lords. They killed each other in a dispute over their father's inheritance at the site of the crosses. The stone crosses are then said to be called the enemy brothers. However, this story ignores the reason for the creation of the former third cross.
