Way of the Cross on Kalvarienberg

Highlight • Religious Site

Stations of the Cross and Calvary Hill Roßhaupten

Highlight • Religious Site

As here, the Way of the Cross usually leads up or along the mountain or hill (sometimes also referred to as "Calverian Hill" in memory of Golgotha, where Jesus Christ was crucified) with the - nowadays mostly 14 - stations. Early medieval forerunners of the Ways of the Cross had only 7 stations and were sometimes also referred to as the "walk to the seven footfalls".
In some places, after the fourteenth station, the burial of Jesus, there is another station: the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This additional Station of the Cross broadens the view from Good Friday towards the Easter perspective of hope: overcoming death and suffering.

October 6, 2021,Drachenweg – Kreuzweg Runde

A tour that offers something for everyone.
Children's playground and mini golf at the beginning,
swim in the swimming pond or Forggensee,
the mysticism of the dragon path or
just go on a nice tour.

With sure-footed children, the more difficult section to the lake can be easily managed. It is the most beautiful part of the hike.
