     Krizova cesta
Na nevysokem zalesnenem chlumu nad vimperskou nemocnici se v ostrych serpentinach vinou zastaveni krizove cesty. Na jejim nejvyssim bode, nedaleko od katastralni hranice mesta, stoji vestinu smrkovi prosty dreveny kriz. Jen nekolik desitek metru odtudzacina rekreacni areal Vodnik a temer na dotek se tu setkavaji dva svety. Uplynuly, zahledeny do nebes a touzici po Bozi milosti, a soucasny, zahledeny do sebe a touzici po zabave.

Krizovou cestou se v evropskych katolickych zemich nazyvalo symbolicke zobrazeni utrpeni Jezise Krista na jeho posledni ceste z domu Pontia Pilata az na horu Kalvarii v Jeruzaleme. Nejcasteji se takova krizova cesta budovala pod sirym nebem ve volne krajine a vedla do kopce, ktery se casto take nazyval Kalvarie. Lemovala jjednotliva zastaveni, jejichz pocet kolisal od 7 do 14.

Ve Vimperku se o zalozeni krizove cesty zaslouzil Johann Steinbrener. Vybudovana byla v sedmdesatych letech 19. stoleti a vysvecena v roce 1884 behem pusobeni prvniho vimperskeho dekana Jana Filipa Brunnera.

Zbozni poutnici stoupali po vimperske krizove ceste az do konce druhe svetove valky. S odchodem nemeckeho obyvatelstva v roce 1946 a s nastupem komunismu jeji zastaveni osirela a neradostne vlady se ujal zub casu. Az v roce 2001 byla cela krizova cesta opravena a dnes jejich 14 zastaveni, drevenych ocislovanych skrinek na stihlych kamennych sloupcich, opet zobrazuje davne mysterium z pocatku krestanstvi a hlasa tem vnimavym, ze existuje neco nad nami.

 

     The Way of the Cross
mild wooded hill above the Vimperk hospital has a Way of the Cross winding in sharp bends on its slope, with a simple wooden cross at its top in the shade of spruce trees, not far from the town limits.
The Vodnik recreation area is a stone’s throw away, virtually connecting two different worlds: the world of the past, looking up to heaven and longing for God’s mercy, and the present world, self-absorbed, with a desire for entertainment.

The Way of the Cross is a term used in Catholic European countries for a symbolic manifestation of Jesus Christ’s suffering on his last journey from Pontius Pilate’s house to Mount Calvary in Jerusalem. A Way of the Cross was usually built in open landscape, leading up a hill, which was often referred to as Calvary. It had stations along the way, ranging in number from seven to fourteen.

The Way of the Cross in Vimperk owes its existence to Johann Steinbrener. It was built in the 1870s and consecrated by Jan Filip Brunner, the first dean of Vimperk, in 1884.

Pious pilgrims used to walk along it until the end of WW II, but after the transfer of the German population in 1946, followed by the rise of Communism, the way became deserted and began to fall victim to the merciless ravages of time. It was not until 2001 that the whole way was restored, and now its fourteen stations, numbered wooden cabinets on top of slender columns of stone, once again portray the glorious mystery of early Christianity, calling to those with open ears and hearts a message about the existence of something that transcends us.
