The Christian tradition knows seven sorrows of Mary. The biblical basis for the veneration of the Sorrows of Mary is the prophetic words of Simeon at the presentation of Jesus in the temple: "But a sword will pierce through your own soul" (Luke 2:35). The Seven Sorrows of Mary are the opposite pole to the Seven Joys. Specifically, they refer to the painful experiences in Mary's life.

A very beautiful path initiated in 1982 by the then pastor of Teuchatz with 7 martyrs that remind us of the pain of Mary.

The 7 wayside shrines that accompany us from here to the entrance to Maria Steinbach are dedicated to the seven sorrows of Mary.
These seven sorrows show Mary's compassion for the fate and passion of her son Jesus. The motifs are biblical or based on the old tradition of the Stations of the Cross.
