Kalvária Banská Štiavnica

Calvary in Banská Štiavnica is a complex of churches and chapels situated near Ostry vrch, set up in the seventeenth century by Jesuits. František Perger designed the calvary. The project was accredited in 1744 by Archbishop Imrich Esterhazy. In 1745, the upper church was built and the first mass took place. The project was finished in 1751, when the calvary was consecrated.
