Statue of Pope John Paul II

Highlight • Monument

Karol Wojtyla, better known to many as "Pope John Paul II", was born in Wadowice, Poland, in 1920. After the death of Pope John Paul I in the "Three Popes Year" in 1978, he succeeded him at the head of the Roman Catholic Church chosen. As a young man he experienced dictatorships under the Nazi injustice regime of German-occupied Poland and later under the communist rule. His support for freedom efforts, especially in the countries of Eastern Europe, and his part in the fall of the so-called "Iron Curtain", which separated the Western European states from the Eastern bloc, was correspondingly great and passionate during the time of the so-called "Cold War".
Karol Wojtyla (Pope John Paul II) died in the Vatican in 2005 after a long illness.

Great section of the Oder-Neiße cycle path with great surface, which, however, historically changes to cobblestones at the monastery. The monastery complex is definitely worth seeing and has a place to stop for refreshments and a toilet.

March 12, 2023,Marienthal - Rosenthal - Marienthal
We like to run a lap, but after all the wet weather in the last few days we wanted to avoid field and forest paths today. That's why we hiked the cycle path in the Neissetal between Marienthal and Rosenthal back and forth. There were surprisingly few other people out there. The Neisse is still well filled, but even during …

Already postponed 3 times due to bad weather, Krzewina Zgorzelecka, how fluently I can write this. 😂 In the border triangle, the railway lines often change territory. This is also the case between Hagenwerder and Hirschfelde. I am a fan of Upper Lusatia and so the anticipation of this tour was particularly special. From Krzewina station it is only 2 …
