Tips
The Chapel of Our Lady of Lourdes in Kamniška Bistrica was built by the Kamniška bourgeois corporation in 1897. When a larger mountain lodge was built in Kamniška Bistrica in 1928, Mass was more frequent in the chapel. Occasionally, funeral rites were performed in the chapel for the injured mountaineers. After the war, the chapel came under the administration of the Mountaineering Association of Slovenia. It was desecrated in 1951 and served as a warehouse for some time. The party pastor France Gačnik succeeded in returning it to the parish for use and after a thorough restoration it was blessed on 15 May 1967.
