    In Slovenian: Cerkev Marijinega vnebovzetja

    The canal pastoral care already existed in the 13th century, so that a small church should stand on the site of today's church, as it was written in one of the documents in the archive of the canal community. This is already mentioned in documents from 1296.

    A parchment letter from 1389 also states that the residents "were already regularly doing the service of God" at that time. The church was once the main point of the urban settlement.

    The shape of the original church is unknown. Since the old church no longer met the needs of the growing population, a new Gothic church was built, as the inscription on the first column of the south wall of the presbytery in the Gothic minuscule "incepcio chori - anno domini m cccc xxx pmo" (1431) and the attest to conciliar documents from 1439. was then consecrated by the Bishop of Gorizia, Kristof.

    After a fire in 1632, almost the entire church was restored and baroque. Almost all of the surrounding parishes had to do their part to repair the church. When the work was completed in 1670, the church was consecrated by the Bishop of Ljubljana, Jožef Discounta.
