In Ybbs an der Donau, two completely different bodies of water meet. While the mighty, navigable Danube dominates the cityscape to the north, the much wilder and more natural Ybbs flows into the river here. You can often see a difference in color in the water. The Ybbs brings cool, clear mountain water from the Eisenwurzen, while the Danube usually has a more greenish-gray color.

To the wanderer lingering before this small, sacred monument with its special dedication as a "Peace Cross"—what more could the world possibly need in these times?—I would like to offer, as a small personal encouragement for peace, the words of greeting from Pope Leo XIV. Immediately after his election, before bestowing the traditional blessing "urbi et orbi" (to the city and the world) upon the waiting faithful, he addressed those gathered in St. Peter's Square, as well as those participating via radio, television, and internet media, with these moving words: "Peace be with you all! Dear brothers and sisters, this is the first greeting of the risen Christ, the Good Shepherd... I, too, wish that this greeting of peace may enter your hearts, reach your families, all people, wherever they may be, all nations, the whole earth. Peace be with you! This is the peace of the risen Christ, an unarmed and disarming peace, humble and steadfast." He comes from God, the God who loves us all unconditionally. (Robert Francis Prevost / Pope Leo XIV)
