The Passion of the Christ is a work of folk architecture and was built (in Slovakia in the 15th - 19th century) in the middle of the village, at crossroads, on the way roads, near churches or other important and legendary places to commemorate happy or tragic events in village life, communities or individuals (eg recovery from a serious illness, plague, reverence for the dead, reconciliation of property disputes, etc.).
