Žiče Carthusian Monastery
|
|
|
|
|
The monastery is hidden in a narrow valley and is easy to miss.
|
|
Once you enter through the main gate, the church ruins are on your right. I though I saw a face here! :)
|
|
Trees grow on top of the walls.
|
|
In the middle of the walled courtyard only a few buildings were renovated, the rest are in ruins.
|
|
In the tower there is a 3-D model of the monastery.

The church.

I absolutely loved the interior of the church! Roofless, bare walls, grass on the ground, interesing shadows ... but tough conditions for a photographer!

I was surprised the place was almost deserted. I hardly saw any visitors, and that's a shame.
