Description Turn-by-turn directions How to get there

The Via Crucis is about 400 meters long, but has several viewing stations.

The 5 chapels (15th century) representing scenes from the Passion of Christ. Together with the former "Görz" chapel in the parish church and the circular chapel in Lerschach, they form the so-called "Calvary Mountain" pilgrimage road. The chapel was built to commemorate the fallen in the war against the Republic of Venice. The Way of the Cross is 1200 feet long, the exact length of Jerusalem's, and was built by Emperor Maximilian in 1519.
