Sveta Gora, Minor basilica on Mount Sveta Gora, Slovenia
The Basilica of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary spans 72 meters in length and 22 meters in width, featuring three naves and a side aisle.
The original 14th-century church on Mount Sveta Gora was destroyed by Turkish forces in 1496, leading to a reconstruction between 1514 and 1544.
The sanctuary forms part of a triangle with Castelmonte and Maria Zell, connected through the historical Path of Sacred Mountains.
The basilica maintains a museum displaying late Gothic architectural fragments, Baroque altar pieces, and religious artifacts from the 18th century.
A bronze relief of Madonna discovered in Grgar dating to the late 12th century represents one of the earliest religious artworks in the collection.
