SLO: Graditelji so cerkev Svetega Petra postavili na 839 metrov
visoko hribovsko sleme pod Stolom in Begunjšcico tik nad
Poljcami in Begunjami. Pravijo, da je to ena najboljših
razglednih tock na Gorenjskem. To so naši predniki vedeli
že pred petsto leti, ko so si ta vrh izbrali za zažiganje
kresa, da je naznanjal prebivalcem v ravnini bližajoco se
turško nevarnost. Cerkev sv. Petra je bila pozidana ob koncu
15. stoletja. Gradili naj bi jo bili gorenjski stavbeniki, ki so
poznali izkušnje pri gradnji znamenitih gorenjskih gotskih
dvoranskih cerkva: v Crngrobu, Škofji Loki, Radovljici,
Kranju... Prvotno je bila cerkvena ladja locena od zvonika.
Šele veliko pozneje so ju povezali z manjšo
streho , zvoniku pa na zahodni strani prizidali zaprto lopo z
oknom. Današnji zid, ki obdaja cerkev, je bil v preteklosti
veliko vecji, saj je bil okrog cerkve tudi protiturški
tabor. Preden obišcemo cerkev, se je vredno ustaviti
še pri Marijini kapelici na vzhodni strani, ob
prezbiteriju.
ENG: The builders of the church of St. Peter put it on the
839-meter high mountain ridge under the Stol and
Begunjšcica, just above Poljce and Begunje. They say that
this is one of the best vantage points in Gorenjska. These are our
forefathers known for five hundred years ago, when they have chosen
this hill for burning bonfire, that was announced the people in the
plane, that Turkish danger is approaching. Church of St. Peter was
built at the end of the 15th century. Originally the church nave
was separated from the bell tower. It was much later that they were
connected with a lower roof. Today's wall that surrounds the
church, was much greater in the past, because this place was also
against Turkish camp. Before you visit the church, it is worth
stopping in at Mary's Chapel on the east side, by the
presbytery.
