    Tips

    At the beginning of the 1700s, the plague also affected Kőszeg and its surroundings. The people of Kőszeg made a vow to build a church, asking for the help of the heavens. It so happened that between 1729 and 1734, with great difficulty, the Calvary Church was built.
    Today it is an excellent excursion destination with a great panorama. By default, the building can only be admired from the outside.
    There are 14 stations on the pedestrian road leading to the church, designed by Viennese architect Ludwig Schöne in 1890.

      Strenuous climb, but worth it. The church is currently being renovated. As of 2022.
