Cross behind the village - Veľký Grob

A stone cross on a slight hill on the left about 1.5 kilometers behind Veľký Grob. Overgrown with trees, it stands on the site of a settlement and a desolate church in the past. The cross is preserved, but the inscription with the year is missing.

In the location Pustý kostel pod zému, a recent georadar survey captured the remains of a single-nave structure with a semicircular/horseshoe-shaped apse and a northern sacristy. From the west side, the nave was connected to the present tower, the lower tower of which was open to the south and north sides. The shape of the sanctuary indicates that it was still a (late) Romanesque building, built in the second third of the 13th century at the latest.

It is a small elevation about three meters high, on top of which a cross is built as a memorial to the defunct church.
