Javorca, peace monument

"The wooden sanctuary stands in the middle of a fairy-tale mountain world, high above the Tolminka riverbed - as if the builders wanted to bring the dead and living soldiers closer to the beauty they were deprived of in the trenches.

… The Church in Javorca has been declaring peace for many decades. Once to the soldiers in the midst of the whirlwind of war, today to us who are looking for a way out of the whirlpool of modern haste."

Andrej Praznik, Družina, 8. 1. 2006
