The Way of the Cross was established in 2001 and is not a tribute solely to the miners of the nearby mines. After all, Germans, Frenchmen and Belgians worked in Boguszów excavations. Their families, including mothers, also suffered as a result of unfortunate accidents. And one of the stations is dedicated to him.
The next stations are a place of reflection on stories from nearby mines, but the penultimate - the thirteenth station - is dedicated to the memory of miners exiled to Siberia who in murderous conditions mined ore and coal in the mines of Vorkuta and Kolyma. The fourteenth station is a tribute to all those who died in the mines. Especially those whose bodies were not found. Each station, however, is different and equally important.
The Krzyżowa Road of Górniczy Trudu leads along a gentle, green trail to the top of Chełmiec (851 m a.s.l.)
Way of the Cross
The only Górnicza Kalwaria in the country consists of 14 granite boards. It is a tribute to the mining effort which today - after closing the mines in the Boguszów area - is getting harder and harder to understand for young people. The more important is its existence.
How it working
To listen to the history of monuments as part of the "Discover History" project, you need to follow a few simple steps. Below, we present a short, step-by-step "user manual" to provide a relatively simple way to access the mini-auditions.
You need a smartphone with a camera. The camera lens should be pointed at the information plaque located next to the monument. Below is a view of the plaque itself and its example location next to the Karol Musioł monument in Opole.
After pointing your smartphone's camera at the QR code located on the right side of the plaque, the app's welcome screen will appear, followed by a screen with the name, photo of the monument, and the "START" button.
The "START" button starts the audio recording process.
Your smartphone will prompt you with the next steps after you listen to the story or pause it. Please keep an eye on your smartphone screen!
Other available options: brief information about the monument, author of the text and recording, list of other monuments in the city included in the "Discover History" project, downloadable map of monuments, video, and social media links
Would you like to implement the project in your city as well?

Monuments in cities remind us of the history of places and people, and allude to important events. They are also works of art. Bronze, metal, wood, or concrete transformed into the form of a monumental obelisk attract attention. We enjoy sitting by them, taking photos, and making appointments.
Project partners
Implementing the "Discover history" project in each city requires the involvement of many people: programmers, graphic designers, writers, actors, sound engineers, and coordinators. It is thanks to them that this project came to life.
Our ambition is to continually expand its reach. Therefore, we thank our current partners and invite additional cities, institutions, companies, and individuals to collaborate!
