Calvary Hill in Nitra, Religious heritage site in Nitra, Slovakia.

The Calvary Hill features a sequence of Neo-Romanesque chapels with reliefs depicting the crucifixion of Jesus Christ along a walking path.

The site emerged between the 18th and 19th centuries, transforming a former guard tower of Nitra Castle into the Chapel of the Holy Sepulcher.

The Mission Museum at the base displays international artifacts, including tribal masks and objects collected by missionaries from various continents.

A telescope installation at the summit allows visitors to examine detailed views of Nitra city and the surrounding mountain landscape.

The complex stands on one of seven hills that form Nitra, incorporating three crosses at its peak with panoramic views of the region.
