Hrastovlje Church of the Holy Trinity, Hrastovlje

This remote part of Slovenia is worth driving to for the beautiful scenery. About 25 minutes from Koper is this historical church atop a hill with outstanding views. It's quiet. Didn't go inside as you need to call a number for someone to let you in. Open 9-16 weekdays and costs 3eur. However you can walk around the outside. Some parking on site. Worth a visit.

Magical, beautiful, breath taking church, to wich I keep returning every year. For 3 eur you will get quite dicent guidance and a lovely chat. Also, from a vineyard around they are offering bottled red wine Refosk. Just a little further on, there is a hill and on a top of it, there is a charmy, little church from 15 century. Sadly it is closed for public, but if you realy want to see it, ask the locals for a key.

Not far from the highway, magnificent small church from 12 century with marvelous frescos inside - masterpiece. Dance of death is special. The church is behind a protective wall. Entrance fee 3eur.

The most beautiful display of late medieval religious art. Calling in advance is advisable. Although perhaps not nessecary it seemed appreciated. The (really friendly) keeper put on an audio in our own language and pointed at the fresco’s that were explained by the audio at that moment. That way you can really take the most out of it. Worth the trip.

A must visit to view the dance of death - a well preserved fresco. Take time to listen to the rest of the explanation of the paintings which are also well preserved. Current entry is 3 Euro per person. Walk through the old town if time allows!
