This vintage postcard features a beautiful color illustration of the Kalvarienberg hill with the Pfarrhaus and Gnadenkapelle in Maria Bildstein, Benken, located in the canton of St. Gallen, Switzerland. The scene depicts the Stationsweg (Way of the Cross) path winding through a serene wooded landscape with small chapels and a Lourdes Grotto, all set against a sky transitioning from soft blue to pink at sunset. Printed by Verlag A. Lichtensteiger in Dietfurt, this early 20th-century linen-style postcard measures approximately 3.5 x 5.5 inches and reflects the typical European religious pilgrimage sites often captured in postcards of that era. The back includes handwritten German script, adding historical and collectible value. The postcard is an original, not a licensed reprint, making it a charming piece for collectors interested in Swiss landmarks, religious pilgrimage sites, or antique postcards from the St. Gallen region.
