Krzeszów calvary, Religious monument in Krzeszów, Poland.

The Krzeszów Calvary is a set of 16 chapels with 32 stations, laid out on flat ground among fields and woods rather than on a hill. Its route runs over 5 km and begins and ends at the Cistercian monastery complex.

The Calvary was begun between 1672 and 1678 under Bernard Rosa, abbot of the Krzeszów Cistercians. Its first chapels were wooden; between 1703 and 1721, under Abbot Dominik Geyer, they were replaced by masonry buildings. The 16 chapels hold 32 stations along a route of more than 5 km that starts and ends at the monastery complex.

The 32 stations along the 5 km route are spread across fields and woods rather than a hillside, so walking them is a procession through open countryside. The calvary begins and ends at the Cistercian monastery complex, tying the devotion to the abbey that founded it.

The route runs over flat ground among fields and forests, not up a hillside, and covers more than 5 km, starting and ending at the monastery complex. Plan for a long walk on level paths and allow time to stop at the 16 chapels with their 32 stations.

The whole route runs over 5 km and begins and ends at the Cistercian monastery complex, so the stations are scattered across fields and woods rather than up a hill. Only the Kalwaria Wambierzycka is larger among the Sudetes calvaries.
