The Kreuzberg (Křížová hora, 562.7 m) is a striking mountain range that stretches from Mount Jedlová to Jiřetín (Sankt Georgenthal). There you will find the most photographed way of the cross of the Schluckenauer Zipfel. The beginnings of the pilgrimage site on the Kreuzberg are associated with legends that revolve around a miraculous cross. The prayer on this cross brought about the healing of Anton Donth in the middle of the 17th century. It is said that the Georgenthal pastor Michael Gürtler had the first cross erected on the Kreuzberg in 1699. Pastor Gottfried Liessner, who had eleven stone Stations of the Cross, a wooden chapel with the 12th and 13th stations and a grave chapel in rococo style built there in 1759, was particularly responsible for the development of the pilgrimage site. The Way of the Cross begins at the foot of the slope with a monumental staircase with stone columns. The originally wooden Holy Cross Chapel on the top of the mountain was replaced by a stone structure in the 18th century. This was completed in 1796. The entire pilgrimage site, including the Stations of the Cross and the Gethsemane Garden, has been gradually renovated since the 1990s.
