Facts and practical information

The Seven Footfalls are a Way of the Cross created around the year 1700 between the cemetery of Bad Camberg and the Chapel of the Cross. Since the original panels are heavily weathered, they are located in the crypt of the Kreuzkapelle▼. Copies and information boards are attached to the seven wayside shrines. The classically structured canes are over 3 meters high, built up of quarry stone and covered with sandstone slabs. The Way of the Cross is a protected monument.
