19th–20th century wayside crosses and their significance in a village on the Hungarian Great Plain . Religion and the environment were closely interrelated. One sign of this are the crosses, chapels and religious statues found beside roads and paths or in the inner area of settlements. In Endrőd — a Catholic island amidst the surrounding Protestant villages — the existing sacral small structures date from the mid-19th century. These were no longer erected from the 1950s in the atmosphere hostile to the church and religion. However, since the change of political system (1989/90) sacral structures once again play a role in Catholic religious practice in Endrőd. The article presents changes in the customs of erecting crosses, the role played by wayside crosses in the religious life of the community and their formal characteristics.
