Cemetery cross

Sacral small monument

The central cross of the Gurgyal cemetery, or the Pauer Cross, is a work of grayish sandstone standing on a two-stepped base. The head of the column widens upwards, and on it is another step, on which is the cross with an iron body and a decorated stem end with the inscription INRI. Christ's hands are spread out on the cross, his head tilted to the right, his legs and feet next to each other, his body is covered with a white loincloth. On the right side of the column is a grayish-white marble tablet in memory of "our loved ones who disappeared in the two world wars."

Inscription/symbol:

Grant, O Lord, / Eternal rest to them / And may eternal light / Shine upon them! / To the glory of God / Out of compassion for his departed faithful / In memory of the Holy Year and his 10 years of pastoral ministry here / Made by / KÁROLY PAUER / deacon-parish priest/ 1925. // ; Lord! / For whom we pray / have mercy: / To our loved ones who disappeared in the two world wars / Here we place the / Flowers intended for them, / Because we do not know / Where they sleep / their eternal sleep.
