Many people know the iconic calvary in Banská Štiavnica but not so many people know that in the neighbouring village of Štiavnické Bane there is another calvary, not so often visited.
Popular Calvary in Banská Štiavnica is reconstructed in its Baroque beauty
It is located above Horná Roveň, part of Štiavnické Bane. It was built in the middle of the 18th century and it consists of the seven stations of the cross.
The seventh station is located on the hill and it is shaped as three crosses. Under the crosses are statues of the Virgin Mary and Saint John.
The calvary is lined by an old linden avenue planted decades ago on an originally treeless hill.
