Župnijska cerkev sv. Andreja
About This Museum
Did you know this seemingly modest parish church holds a secret history stretching back to the 12th century? Tucked away in the Slovenian countryside, its unassuming white facade belies an interior rich with devotion and artistry. Stepping inside feels like discovering a hidden chapter of local faith, where generations have gathered under its vaulted ceiling. The air is cool and still, thick with the scent of old wood and wax, making it a profoundly peaceful retreat.
Collection Highlights
The main altar is a stunning Baroque masterpiece dedicated to St. Andrew, but don't miss the older, more poignant Gothic wooden statue of the saint tucked away in a side chapel. Look for the faded fresco fragments on the walls, ghostly reminders of the medieval art that once covered the entire interior.
Visitor Information
It's an active parish church first and foremost, so your best bet for a good look inside is to check mass times or just try the door gently—if it's open, you're welcome to step in quietly and soak in the atmosphere.
Architecture & Building
A beautiful blend of styles; from its sturdy Romanesque origins visible in the foundation to later Gothic expansions and a final, graceful Baroque makeover that gave us the current soaring vaults and ornate altars.
