Inside The Disturbing Sculptures Of Ireland’s Victor’s Way

Inside The Disturbing Sculptures Of Ireland’s Victor’s Way




This "adults-only" sculpture garden boasts a vagina with teeth, a naked woman forcefully separating from her child, and a man with no penis cutting himself in half. Even stranger, this Irish park is supposed to help people who are undergoing a midlife crisis or "dysfunction." Discover the bizarre world of Victor's Way — and see why the owner doesn't want any visitors under 28:


Victor Langheld created a sculpture garden meant for adults only, but it's not exactly what you'd expect. The park, called Victor's Way, contains nudity and somewhat violent sculptures made of black granite. However, it's not supposed to be pornographic. Instead, it's meant for spiritual reorientation and philosophical enlightenment.


Victor Langheld created a sculpture garden meant for adults only, but it's not exactly what you'd expect. The park, called Victor's Way, contains nudity and somewhat violent sculptures made of black granite. However, it's not supposed to be pornographic. Instead, it's meant for spiritual reorientation and philosophical enlightenment.


Langheld is so serious about this meditative experience that he even briefly closed the garden in 2015 after too many families started treating it like a theme park. But the entrance to the garden, which features a vagina with teeth, should have been people's first clue that this is no Disneyland.

"Victor's Way was not intended to be a commercial mass tourism enterprise," Langheld wrote on the park's website. "Sadly the recently increasing numbers of visitors that crowd the Way on Saturdays and Sundays are beginning to degrade its contemplative ambience."


That said, the park did re-open in 2016 with a firmer set of rules. The sculptures — many representing Hindu icons — are meant to be viewed by those experiencing a midlife crisis or "dysfunction."

A plaque on the gate dedicates the space to the famed mathematician Alan Turing. Langheld summarizes his park as a "Turing machine," and his explanation below attempts to clarify what he means by this.


"A Turing machine is a non-localized (i.e. abstract ≈ universal) set of rules that can simulate, i.e. copy, and so become, any local set of rules (read: boundaries or limits), whereby neither set rules is defined."

Victor's Way is located in County Wicklow in Ireland, and it spans 22 acres. It is open only during the summer months

The sculpture garden boasts seven major and 37 minor sculptures, all of which took 25 years to complete. Langheld established the sculpture garden in 1989 after a trip to India where he set out to gain spiritual enlightenment.


Born in Berlin, Langheld has lived with a number of different religious orders throughout Asia. Inspired by his travels, he sponsored and designed most of the entire park himself.

To enter the sculpture garden, you walk through a looming black-granite vagina dentata (Latin for "toothed vagina"), guarded by a stone snake.

Once inside, the main draws of the park are the seven major statues, which were created to bring visitors self-actualization and help them through whatever existential crisis they're going through. They were designed by Langheld, and cast in black granite and bronze by artists in India.


These sculptures are meant to be viewed as you follow a path that leads you to reflection. Benches are plentiful so you can sit and contemplate your process of enlightenment. After you finish with the main statues, there are several more lighthearted Ganesh sculptures for your enjoyment.

It's unknown how many visitors the park gets per year, but it's probably more than Langheld wants. As he explains on the website: "Victor's Way was designed as a contemplation (or meditation) space for lone adults between the approx. ages of 28 and 65 who feel the need to take some quality time out for R&R&R (i.e. rest, recovery & spiritual reorientation)."


The Evolution Of Victor's Way
When the park opened in 1989, it was under the name Victor's Way. However, at some point Langheld had a sexual encounter that he says gave him a "tantric consummation." (You can read a somewhat personal account of what Langheld means by that here.)

He renamed the park Victoria's Way in response to achieving this salvation.

In the meantime, this sculpture garden became quite the popular family tourist attraction — much to Langheld's dismay. He closed it down in 2015, but re-opened it again in 2016, under the original name Victor's Way.


There were firmer age restrictions this time around. He also doubled down on the intended spiritual purpose of his sculpture park.

Committed To A Purpose
Perhaps most people would be tempted to let anyone who paid admittance come through the gate and visit the park. But Langheld isn't most people.

He keeps the somewhat odd rule that the park is not suitable for teenagers, but kids are welcome. Perhaps it's the notion that teenagers would arrive at the garden unsupervised. There is also a one-dog policy.

Outdoor clothes and water-resistant shoes are recommended, as is traveling the path alone. Mobile phones should be left unattended, except for taking photos of the sculptures. It is also suggested that you walk at a slow pace, and properly sit down and reflect on each piece.

Still wondering if you should check it out? Listen to what Langheld has to say: The park is "suitable for wholly dedicated and death defying spiritual gymnasts, complete with philosophical abseiling, meta-physical white knuckle rides and darkest psychic and somatic potholing."

If this sounds like your wildest dream come true, head straight for Victor's Way — you are definitely who it was built for.

Meet Tenzing Norgay, The ‘Unsung Hero’ Of The First Successful Summit Of Mount Everest

Meet Tenzing Norgay, The ‘Unsung Hero’ Of The First Successful Summit Of Mount Everest Edmund Hillary was the first person to climb Mount Everest, but he couldn't have done it without Sherpa Tenzing Norgay. Born in the Himalayas, Tenzing Norgay grew up revering the "mighty mountain" of Everest and the "goddess of the summit." Though his father gave him a name that means "wealthy fortunate follower of religion" in hopes that he would become a monk, Norgay dreamt of being a mountaineer. He ran away from home multiple times to hike among the peaks, and eventually joined his first official mountaineering expedition at age 20 in 1935. By the time he was 40 years old, he had spent more time on the face of Mount Everest than any other person alive. ⁠ ⁠ So, when a British expedition was looking for local guides in an attempt to reach the summit, they turned to Norgay. And on May 29, 1953, Norgay and New Zealand mountaineer Edmund Hillary became the first peopl...

In 1954, an Extraterrestrial Bruiser Shocked This Alabama Woman

In 1954, an Extraterrestrial Bruiser Shocked This Alabama Woman Ann Elizabeth Fowler Hodges, the first documented individual to not only be struck by a meteorite but also live through the encounter in 1954. The grapefruit sized fragment crashed through the roof of her farm house, bounced off a large wooden console radio, and hit Hodges while she napped on a couch. The 34 year old woman was badly bruised on one side of her body, but was able to walk. The event received worldwide publicity. On November 30, 1954, Ann Hodges experienced a rude awakening. As the 34-year-old lay napping cozily under quilts on the sofa in her Alabama home, she awoke with a jolt as she became the only human being known to have suffered an injury after being struck by a meteorite. The approximately 8.5-pound, 4.5-billion-year-old interplanetary traveler shot like a bullet through her Sylacauga house’s roof at 2:46 p.m. It banged into her large radio console and bounced onto her body, causing a large bruise on h...

The Macabre True Story Of Edward Paisnel, The Beast Of Jersey

 The Macabre True Story Of Edward Paisnel, The Beast Of Jersey Throughout the 1960s, Edward Paisnel appeared to be a pillar of his small community on the English Channel Island of Jersey. He was a family man who was devoted to his wife Joan and her young children, and he even played Santa Claus at Christmastime for the young foster children at the group home that Joan founded. But when he wasn't spending time with his family or doing good deeds, he was donning this mask and sneaking into his neighbors' homes at night in order to sexually assault women and children. It would take more than a decade for police to finally catch up with the “Beast of Jersey" as they repeatedly focused on other suspects, blind to the fact that a man like Paisnel could commit such crimes. Officers only caught him when he ran a red light one day in 1971 and they happened to see his mask sitting right there in his car. Edward Paisnel committed more than a dozen rapes and assaults in the Channel Is...

A Germany Regiment marching down from their mountain positions surrender to the Americans, Austria, 1945

A Germany Regiment marching down from their mountain positions surrender to the Americans, Austria, 1945 After Germany's surrender in May 1945, millions of German soldiers remained prisoners of war. In France, their internment lasted a particularly long time. But, for some former soldiers, it was a path to rehabilitation. After Germany's surrender in May 1945, millions of German soldiers remained prisoners of war. In France, their internment lasted a particularly long time. But, for some former soldiers, it was a path to rehabilitation. French units lost out to US soldiers in the last meters of the race to reach Adolf Hitler's destroyed Alpine headquarters, the Berghof. But French troops in southern Germany in early May 1945 nonetheless made good progress, capturing one town after the other. After four years of Nazi occupation, France, under General Charles de Gaulle, joined the ultimately victorious Allied powers in 1944. And the country made sure the defeated German natio...

From Chantal Uren. This is my story

From Chantal Uren. This is my story... My name is Chantal, I'm a 37 year old Police Officer from Western Australia and I had a severe reaction after receiving the Pfizer vaccine. To the people who threatened me with defamation charges and disciplinary action for telling my story, I am disappointed. I'm disappointed that your priority is to silence me for your own ego and agenda rather than ask if I'm ok and offer me any help! At no time have you asked if I'm ok or cared for a second about my health or welfare. You decided that putting me under more stress, when that stress can cause further risk to my life is your priority. It makes me question humanity and how any person can have such a lack of empathy towards another.  If defamation and disciplinary action is what you deem suitable than I'm not afraid. I've done nothing wrong, I did what you wanted and look what happened. No one has the right to take away anyone else's experiences or tell them how they sho...
