Ecumenical Pilgrimage with the words of St. Brigitta of Sweden
Berlin - Bad Wilsnack
April 26 to May 4, 2024

Our pilgrimage begins on Friday evening at 7 p.m. with an evening of getting to know each other at the St. Jacobi Berlin Pilgrim Center. On the inner path, we connect with the key words of St. Brigitta of Sweden's pilgrimage. The outer path leads us via Alt-Heiligensee, Flatow, Fehrbellin, Barsikow, Barenthin, Klein Leppin to the Wunderblutkirche in Bad Wilsnack.

The route requires a good level of fitness (daily distances of around 20-25 km) on forest-like and paved field and country lanes. Appropriate clothing and footwear are required. Our pilgrim accommodations are varied, ranging from simple

common rooms, in churches and church towers with sleeping mats, sleeping bags or camp beds/beds. A Boni bus will accompany us on the pilgrimage. This means that there is the possibility that your sleeping bag and mattress can travel with you. During the day, you will have to take care of your supplies from your backpack.

Participants are responsible for their own travel costs to Berlin and back from Bad Wilsnack. Cancellation is possible free of charge until April 11.

The participation fee of €295 includes the expenses for the pre-booked pilgrim accommodation, the communal meals in the morning and evening, with the exception of the day of arrival in Bad Wilsnack.
