O Xibao Tall Cross Cruz alta
- Tomiño, Xibao, -
- Coordinates:41.982541, -8.756501
It is located at a crossroads in Xibao and is made of granite. It features a quadrangular base that supports a cross with straight and plain arms, on which two small sculptures protrude. The first is a full-lenght figure positioned on a small bracket halfway up the shaft,. The second is a sculpted face situated at the vey top. Both of them are heavily eroded due to the passage of time, which makes it difficult to interpret.
