    In Gorica, on a small hill above Lepoglava, in the 17th century, the chapel of St. No. Shortly after its construction, in 1727, the chapel was dedicated to the fifteen Saints John and was restored in the Baroque style. The interior walls of the chapel were painted by the Plavin monk and famous Baroque painter Ivan Ranger. According to some information, it is believed that the artistic work of Ivan Ranger began in this chapel. On the walls of the chapel there is a depiction of St. John, of which the central place is occupied by St. John the Baptist as the central motif of the paintings.

    The Way of the Cross with the stations that monitor the serving of the sentence of the Blessed Alojzije Stepinac in Lepoglava leads to the chapel on the hill located above the penitentiary in Lepoglava.
