front of Kettöspince. Originally it was a picture, erected by an ancestor of the Móczik (Cirok Móczik) family in the early 1800's. He constructed a small niche at the beginning of his land and placed the picture in it. The today small statue is still taken care off by the family. Between the two wars it was on the place beside the niche where traders and merchants bought cheriy, sour cherry, red currant, plum and tomato from the farmers. Before World War II the Franciscans decided to built a chapel like the one at Szent János Kút (St. John's Well), at the place of the Mary statue. They weren't given the permission since the statue itself was a triangulation point and it was indi­cated on the military map as a statue. After the war it was planned to destroy the statue but Mrs. János Győry (her maiden name was Anna Cirok Móczik) managed to prevent it by bringing the military map as a reason. Today, behind the niche me find the Vadvirág Camping. 180.

This cross was the second scene of the Corpus Christi Day procession. 181. In 1802 before the Szt János Kút (St John's Well) a nice red marble cross was erected by József Plank, a German citizen of Esztergom. He also established a found to take care of the cross. The inscription says: Erected in 1802. by Joseph Plank, renovated in 1903, by Michael Jaskovitz. Beside the Cross there is a pavement road leading to the chapel. 182. The scone cross of the »Cigánykút«. As the German inscription says in was erected by Jakab Pintér and his wife Regina Schindler in 1802. It was renovated by Istvén Sebők and his wife Anna Újhelyi. The cross and corpus carved from the same piece of sandstone and also the small Madonna statue is in a very bad condirion today, though the farmer Jakab Pintér, citizen of the royal city had spent his increasing money to the protection of the condition of the cross. 183. Ádám Erös erected a stone cross in the park beside the Szentgyörgy­mezö Church in 1811. He also erected a stone statue representing St. Vendel beside the Maróci Road in the same year, but it has gone by today. The cross
