クンベルクのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Only very rarely does one encounter such an elaborately designed Calvary as the one here at Sankt Radegund. The splendor of the baroque palaces and churches of that era has been transferred this time to the fourteen stations of the Passion of Jesus, the classic Way of the Cross, and more have been added. The name CALVARY MOUNTAIN refers to its biblical origins from almost two millennia ago: According to the accounts of the evangelists, the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, outside the gates of Jerusalem, took place at a place called "Golgotha" in Hebrew/Aramaic, which can be translated as "Height of the Skull" or "Place of the Skull." This name, via the Latin version of the text, ultimately led to the German word Calvary.

Always good for a rest.

The Calvary in St. Radegund is a very special masterpiece. No other of its kind in the Alpine region is so rich in chapels and figures. Stairs lead up past numerous stations.

A beautiful place to rest with a heart bench, a cross and a wonderful view of the Schöckl summit.

The monument to Gustav Novy. At the end of the 19th century, the former spa doctor healed countless people who came from far away to St. Radegund. You can see the 20 meter high monument from afar as it rises above the treetops. I definitely recommend taking a break here. There are some benches. It's also worth taking a short detour to a nearby heart-shaped bench with a mountain cross.

A wonderful healthcare facility

No other Calvary in the Alps is as rich in chapels and figures as this one. Nevertheless, standing at the foot of the Calvary, the clear division catches the eye.
