Italy - Eppan-Appiano - Agricultural crucifix figurine

A crucifix located on the edge of a vineyard in the South Tyrolean town of Klausen-Chiusa in northern Italy. South Tyrol is a very religious and traditional country. The weekly walk to Mass and the celebration of religious festivals and processions are part of the culture and tradition in South Tyrol. In almost every house you will find a cross on a corner with consecrated palm branches over there. Also in the stable there are consecrated palm branches to keep away every disaster. South Tyroleans are almost all Catholics and quite conservative.
