The Church of the Holy Ghost in Javorca
In 1916, Austro-Hungarian soldiers of the 3rd Mountain Brigade built a memorial church designed by the architect Remigius Geyling from Vienna.
For a long time and in secret, they chose a location for the church that would be inconspicuous to the enemy and equidistant from the battlefields of Vodil vrh, Mrzlemu vrh, Slemen and Red Rim.
On the south and north sides of the ship, the "wooden leaves" of the Book of the Dead are inscribed with the names of 2808 soldiers who fell on the surrounding hills.
There are also numerous hiking trails nearby, for example, you can hike to Mt Razor or visit the Tolmin Gorge.
Your safety is your responsibility
In the natural environment, you may encounter falling rocks and trees, slippery and uneven terrain, sudden changes in weather, high water levels and wild animals. The park authority maintains trails within the scope of its responsibilities and available resources but cannot guarantee your safety. Visitors are responsible for adapting their plans to the weather and trail conditions, choosing trails suited to their abilities, using appropriate equipment, staying on marked trails and acting responsibly.
