The Church of St. Pancras, which belongs to the parish of Remšnik, stands at an altitude of 900 meters above sea level, at the end of the Radelce ridge right next to the border with Austria. It was first mentioned in 1490, and after being destroyed during the Turkish invasions in 1532, it was rebuilt around 1655. For centuries, it was a popular pilgrimage and excursion point due to its location and observation tower, from which a view opens towards Austria, Kapla, Duh na Ostre Vrh, Brezni Vrh and Remšnik.

After the First World War, the border between the Kingdom of SHS and Austria ran right through the middle of the church, until, according to an agreement in 1966, it was entirely on the Slovenian side. During the time of Yugoslavia, it suffered severe damage – it was used as a stable and the interior was damaged – but it was restored between 1962 and 1966. The church consists of a rectangular nave, a presbytery, a sacristy and a separate bell tower with a viewing platform, which is closed in winter.

Masses are held only a few times a year, usually bilingual, as many believers also come from Austria. Of particular importance are Pancras Sunday in May, Pentecost Monday, the feast of St. Aleš in July and "Beautiful Sunday" in mid-September. Saint Pancras, who is often depicted as a young man with a martyr's crown and a sword or palm, is the patron saint of early Christians, an intercessor against false testimony, headaches and cramps, and one of the fourteen intercessors in emergencies.
