Two photos by Ni Na have nothing to do with the Stations of the Cross. One shows the ski lift in Ulrichschlag, 1.5 km from the Stations of the Cross, and the second shows the Bründl Chapel, 600 m away.

At the time of the creation of "Sigharz" around 1100, this place belonged to the old parish of Raabs an der Thaya - as early as 1080, the Bishop of Passau, Altmann, had personally established its parish rights with the consecration of the church of "Assumption of Mary on the Mountain". Around 1300, when Siegharts had already become a sizeable village with over 20 houses, the "Baptismal Church of St. John" was built here under Weichhart von Siegharts and his brother-in-law, Pastor Weigand von Raabs. This church survived all political unrest in the Middle Ages and early modern times, was even spared during the Thirty Years' War, and existed until the time of the lord Count Johannes Christoph Ferdinand von Mallenthein. He had the 400-year-old church demolished in 1720 and the "St. John's Church" was built in its place between 1723 and 1727, which was elevated to a parish church in 1783. The building plans for the church were drawn up by Donato Felice d’Allio, who also drew up the plans for the Klosterneuburg monastery. In 1727, Count Mallenthein became impoverished, partly due to excessive debt and partly due to difficulties in selling the textiles he produced. The construction of the church was therefore halted. Other ruling families also stopped building the church, so the lavish plans of the time could not be fully implemented. It was only after the war, in 1950, that the baroque furnishings could be added due to the growing prosperity.

The memorial stone was - finally - renovated. If the writing is now made readable, it will be perfect.
