Advent Circular Walk Traunstein: contemplative through the city center
Amidst lights and winter silence, the Advent Circular Walk in Traunstein offers a faith experience in the open air. Along a marked walking path, Christmas impulses from the parish of St. Oswald invite reflection, prayer, and a moment of inner peace.
Sensory Stations with Christmas Impulses
Along the route, groups from the parish of St. Oswald create short spiritual prompts: texts, prayers, and symbols introduce the theology of the Advent season and strengthen the sense of community. The path runs past the war graves memorial at the Hohen Kreuz, the Ettendorfer Kircherl, the wine slope, the viaduct, and back through the Traunweg to the city center.
Individually Walkable – about an hour
The spiritual city round can be walked individually and at one’s own pace; the average walking time is about 60 minutes. Those who wish can linger at the stations longer, deepening silence, light, and religious experience.
Faith in Urban Space – Catholic Tradition on Site
The city church of Traunstein with the parish of St. Oswald has shaped the spiritual culture of the city for centuries. City pastor Konrad Roider and the pastoral team invite you to live spirituality in everyday life and to consciously shape Advent – in the togetherness of an open, warm community.
