Staroboleslavská Svatá cesta

The Staroboleslavská Svatá cesta is a pilgrimage route that stretches through Podolanka, Vinoř, and Vysočany, connecting multiple baroque chapels along its path. These chapels, including the Nezamyslická, Nycovská, Jeníkovská, and Kutnohorská, form a series of religious stations with characteristics of Czech architecture.

This pilgrimage route began in medieval times as a connection between Prague and Stará Boleslav, serving generations of religious travelers. The baroque chapels were added later and continue to shape the spiritual heritage of the region.

The chapels along the route display various religious symbols and craftsmanship traditions that reflect the spiritual life of local communities. These were places where pilgrims stopped to pray and renew their connection to faith.

The route has several entry points in Podolanka and is marked with signs and information boards throughout. Visitors should wear sturdy shoes and allow enough time to visit all the chapels, as the route is explored on foot.

Each chapel features distinct architectural elements and religious motifs that create a special sequence of spiritual stations. This variety allows visitors to trace the evolution of baroque style and local craftsmanship techniques within a single route.
