Donations as a sign of love and gratitude.
In 140 years, several wooden sculptures and products have been given away, as a sign of gratitude.
The German word “schenken” (“to donate”, “to give”) derives from the word “einschenken” (“to pour”) and, together with the Old English “scencan” and the Old French “skenka”, can be traced back to the West Germanic “skankija”. This can still be found to this day, in “Schenke” (“tavern”), Wirtshaus (“inn”). Only since the subsequent New High German era has the word “schenken” been understood in terms of “unentgeltlich geben” (“to give gratuitously”). This development emerged from the custom of distributing drinks as well as presents at festive receptions.
Der Christus auf Sëura Sass, oberhalb von St. Ulrich in Gröden.
Donating is an expression of love and gratitude and the Ferdinand Stuflesser 1875 workshop has donated various works of art for this very reason. These include the following works:
- Side Altar in the Parish Church of Ortisei in Val Gardena
- Andreas Hofer Statue in St. Leonhard in Val Passiria
- The statute of Christ on Seura Sass, above Ortisei in Val Gardena
Hardly any death is explored as intensively as that of Jesus of Nazareth. He is one of the most shameful and cruel in human history.
