Sobre
Fatos rápidos: Esta igreja no topo da colina oferece vistas panorâmicas da região de Záhorie e da cordilheira dos Cárpatos Brancos. O interior apresenta um impressionante retábulo barroco do século XVIII e uma iconóstase única da tradição católica oriental local.
Destaques: A maioria dos visitantes não nota a pequena escada de madeira entalhada escondida atrás do altar principal, que leva a uma pequena câmara outrora usada pelos monges para oração silenciosa. Desta sala superior, uma única janela em lanceta emoldura perfeitamente o pôr do sol através das colinas de vinhedos ao redor.
