Our Lady of the Annunciation Parish Church is a single-nave church with two chapels and a dome, built in 1808 on the foundations of a 16th-century Gothic church above the old town center of Tržič, next to the town cemetery.

Stained glass windows light the hall, and a side altar shows Layer's painting of Saint Florian with the Tržič fire of 1811.
