The monument is situated on the edge of the elevated part of a mountain branch which extends like a cape, about 300 metres south-west of Voskepar, at an altitude of 1,041 metres above sea level (N 41°03.24.78´´; E 045°02.28.50´´).

This lonely cross, the lower wing of which is not preserved, has a height of 81, a width of 93 and a thickness of 24 cm. It dates back to the 13th century. Taking into account its peculiar position, we may presume that it was originally erected to mark a boundary.
