Święta Góra Grabarka is sometimes called the "Hill of Crosses". Thousands of crosses arranged around the church of the Transfiguration are crosses brought with prayer for help in various difficult life situations: illnesses, misfortunes, asking for peace for the souls of the dead. Often there are also thanksgiving crosses. People have been bringing crosses here since 1710. The number of new crosses is increasing especially in the period before the Transfiguration, when numerous pilgrimages reach Holy Mountain. However, almost every day someone comes here praying, leaving their cross. Under the visible crosses there are human "life crosses": care, joy and suffering, which pilgrims leaving on the Mountain, put in the hands of God. On many crosses there are names and intentions, because of which a cross was placed.
