Description
'Penitential Cross' Walbrzych is a fascinating monument of medieval legal culture. This stone cross is a silent witness to ancient penitential practices, when perpetrators of murder had to erect such monuments as a form of reparation.
This historical element of the cultural landscape is an interesting point of interest for lovers of history and the mysteries of the past. Its austere form and centuries-old presence create an unusual atmosphere of reverie over the passing of time and the old system of justice.
