The Wishing Stones

The Wishing Stones belong to his sculpture gallery in nature (called the Kristek Thaya Glyptotheque). The seven boulders come directly from the Thaya source and symbolize start of a cycle. They were gift of the village of Panenska Rozsicka. On the boulders, one can find coloured pathways that lead to many directions towards fulfillment of each wish. They are in basic colours, from which all shades of nature consist. Together, they form the symbolic map of fate. The pilgrims travel here to insert their wishes into the stones. The wishes, written on a scroll of paper, are to be inserted to any boulder hole. According to the legend, all wishes will be washed away with the first spring rain. They will become part of the natural cycle, they will travel to the Black Sea, evaporate and with the next rain they will be fulfilled.
