Way of the Cross (Tauberbischofsheim)
The Way of the Cross in Tauberbischofsheim in the Main-Tauber district in Baden-Württemberg , which leads to the Stammberg chapel, was built in the 18th century. The Freilandkreuzweg is a listed building .
location
The Way of the Cross begins at the houses of the king Straße, immediately after the Hotel St. Michael on Stammbergweg and leads the Stammberg up to the same tribe mountain chapel . It is located on a well-known pilgrimage route to the blood miracle of Walldürn .
history
The Way of the Cross was built by Anna-Maria Ziglerin in 1772 “In honor of the painful Mother of God”. The original paintings were so badly weathered after more than 100 years that they had to be renewed by the Heidelberg painter Peter Rauth . On June 7, 1894 the inauguration of the renewed Stations of the Cross took place by the auxiliary bishop Justus Knecht . In 1956 the station paintings were replaced by mosaic paintings by the Constance painter Peter Diedrichs.
description
The way of the cross to the Stammberg chapel has only seven stations, which tie in with the memory of the seven sorrows of Mary based on the prophecy of Simeon. The veneration of the Sorrows of Mary dates back to the Middle Ages. On every mosaic picture of the individual stations of the cross there is a sword that sticks into the heart of the mother of Jesus. This should represent a comparison with the cross and thus a symbol for the pain of Mary. The seven sufferings of Mary mean:
- The “Seven Sorrows of Mary” at the seven stations of the cross to the Stammberg chapel
I. The prophecy of Simeon
II. The Flight into Egypt
III. The concern for the twelve year old Jesus in Jerusalem
IV. The meeting of mother and son on the Way of the Cross
V. Perseverance under the cross
VI. The embrace of the body of Jesus
VII. The burial of Jesus
