Chapel of St. Juraja - Purga
Chapel of St. Juraj was built in 1749. Its interior represents the culmination of Ranger's work, and among the supreme achievements of his illusionist painting, the central painting with the motif of St. George killing a dragon. Unfortunately, the painting as a whole is not accessible to the eye of the visitor because it is hidden by the altar. Some of Ranger's paintings in the chapel of St. George is inspired by Greek mythology (in one picture is Flora, the Greek goddess of flowers) and in their celebration of life they deviate from the usual motifs of the Ranger era. Connoisseurs of Ranger's painting believe that the artist was particularly attached to the chapel and that he wanted to be buried in it.
