Nice, big church, great doors on one side. Nice surroundings, center, but on the hill. Need to pass by, as anyway you walk near, going from highway side to center.

Interesting building because it was not build straight. I guess they were drunk🤣🤣🤣 Now bishop's church. Cerkev z ovinkom, zanimivo.

One part of the outside looks really old, and the other much newer. There's an info table nearby, check it out to learn about history. The inside looks like classical church interior but the altar seems a bit odd since it's not directly vertical on it.

Hogwarts fans watch out! Since there is this portray of Draco Malfoy my kids were flashed. 😉 Other than this is the bent form of the inside quite unique. You can see the crypta as well, just take the stairs down a few steps to the right from the main entrance.
