Advent Walk

Advent Walk through the Traunstein City Center: Mindfully on the way

During the increasingly peaceful Advent season, this walk offers a conscious faith experience. Surrounded by lights and crisp winter air, the parish of St. Oswald invites spiritual impulses that bring a sense of calm, reflection, and community feeling to the city center of Traunstein.

Spiritual Stations with Christmas Impulses

On an individually walkable path, participants encounter short Advent texts, prayer suggestions, and thoughts on hope. The route leads past the War Graves Memorial at the Hohen Kreuz, further to the Ettendorfer Church, over the Wine Heights and the Viaduct, and back via the Traunweg. About 60 minutes should be planned for the round.

Tradition and Theology in Urban Space

Designed in the spirit of Catholic liturgy and spirituality, the walk connects Advent theology with everyday life. This creates a religious experience that speaks to both heart and mind: Prayer, silence, scriptural words, and small signs guide one into the anticipation of Christmas.

Experience Community – Open to All

The stations were prepared by groups from the parish of St. Oswald and invite believers as well as the interested public. Families, singles, seniors, youth, and visitors to the city are welcome. The walk can be started independently at any time on the event day.

Practical Information for Your Path

Start and end are located in the Traunstein city center. Comfortable, weatherproof clothing and non-slip shoes are recommended. Parking is available around the city center, including at the festival square on Siegsdorfer Straße; the city center is also easily reachable on foot.

Conclusion

Those looking for spiritual community will find a quiet, meaningful Advent moment here. Experience Traunstein in the light of promise and let the impulses take effect – an hour that strengthens heart and faith.
