Locals often refer to it as the "Wetterkreuz" instead of the Bischofskreuz. The last approx. 100 m to the summit can be managed with a mountain bike, but older bikers should partially push their bikes due to numerous tree roots and stones.

A very popular forest parking lot, as it is only a few meters' walk from here to the Meisterseel castle ruins and the Drei Buchen forest lodge.

"The weather cross, consecrated in 1909 by Bishop Konrad von Busch (1847-1910) of Speyer, was created by stonemason Johann Minges and is the highest weather cross on the Haardt mountain range. Locally, it is also known as the Bishop's Cross." Source (quoted verbatim): https://www.kuladig.de/Objektansicht/KLD-272330 The following text (difficult to read) is inscribed on the base of the cross: "Behold the Cross of the Lord! // Flee, you hostile forces! // The Lion of Judah. // The Root of David has triumphed! // Alleluia, Alleluia! // (St. Anthony of Padua)" A vineyard (large vineyard area) in the Southern Palatinate is also called "Bischofskreuz" (Bishop's Cross).
