Heilig Kreuz Church (Santa Croce Church)

The "Holy Cross Church", located at 2,045 meters at the foot of the eponymous mountain in the Fanes Senes Prags Nature Park, was built around 1484 on the commission of Bishop Konrad of Bressanone. Over the years, the small chapel has become a popular destination for many pilgrims. In the first half of the seventeenth century the chapel was enlarged and a bell tower was added. In 1718 a small house was built for the sexton and a hospice for the pilgrims.

Highest point on the route, great location. The church in the foreground and the gigantic rock massif in the background. Here you can take beautiful pictures.

The hut Holy Cross in Abbey is located in a beautiful location at the foot of the "Heiligkreuzkofels". Depending on the season, the colors of the landscape change very much, so that the great view again offers a new experience that covers all the senses!

It has been run by the same family for 5 generations. In the restaurant, which is open all day, you can enjoy the famous Kaiserschmarren with lingonberries or eggs with bacon and potatoes or polenta with cheese and mushrooms.
