St. Andrew's Church

The local church is dedicated to Saint Andrew.[6] It was first mentioned in written sources in 1526 and the current structure was built around 1659. The area for the congregation is divided by piers into a wide central nave flanked by narrower areas on the north and south. The part on the north has been converted into a chapel. The chancel is arched with a richly crested stellar vault. The main altar, which dates to 1850, and both side altars are the work of Jurij Tavčar, a sculptor from Idrija. He also used older Baroque sculptures in creating them. The altar dedicated to Our Lady of Sorrows dates to 1717.[3]
