Routebeschrijving

In the village of Tröpolach, we follow the signposts to Schlanitzen and turn off to the foot of the mountain in the south of the village. The steep Way of the Cross leads us in 30 minutes to the lonely church of Schlanitzen, dedicated to St Leonhard. The silence, only a short distance from the tourist destinations, takes hold of us. The church hints at the former mining industry in this area and contains a fantastic Gothic stencilled ceiling.
