We are searching for roadside crosses in Baranya. First we picked a few geocaches hidden by others, then we decided it is time to hide some more, so let's get off the main road and visit a few smaller villages, they might have some crosses around. The we saw a tower as we were driving across Regenye and decided that building deserves a geocache, and we were looking for hiding places when my daughter spotted this beutiful create. We quickly took a few pictures before continuing the hide.
I recall them being around when I was a little boy, and did not see any more for a long time.
