The small building near the cemetery gate is the "Fehérkép". The square, whitewashed, masonry tower with a small double cross on a red tiled roof is decorated with a painted relief in niches on each of its four sides.
These paintings, dating from 1859, depict the Virgin Mary and Christ crucified, as well as two other saints important to the people of Danube-Sentpalais. The village was famous for its livestock breeding, so St. Vendel, the patron saint of shepherds, and St. Florian, the protector of those living in houses with thatched roofs, are also depicted on the column.
