On the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the Sacred Heart vow, with which the Tyroleans celebrated their victory over Napoleon, the parish of Grän in the Tannheimer Tal created in 1996a path of inner reflection. This path uniquely connects meditation, art, and nature. Since then many walkers and hikershave traveled the somewhat more than one-kilometer-long “Lord’s Prayer Path” from the St. Michael's Chapel in Lumberg in the direction of Tannheim on route no. 1.Along the route, eight stations with depictions of the main prayer elements invite to observe and meditate. The creator of the images, which are embedded in granite blocks aboutman height, is Dr. Walter Besler from Zöblen.“My goal was above all to motivate people to reflect,” said Besler. The “Lord’s Prayer Path,” from which there is a wonderful view across the valley,offers the necessary quiet and setting for this. A composition containing numerous Christian symbols like the burning bush has emerged,but also showing the work for daily bread as well as God’s children of different skin colors. A walk on the “Lord’s Prayer Path” inspired the East Dorf lyricistHelmut Hauser to create a cantata, which was set to music by composer Roberg Pappert and premiered in Beuron Monastery in 1999.
