CERKEV SV.
DUHA NA JAVORCI
Visoko nad strugo Tolminke se
dviga leseno svetišče – spominska cerkev Svetega Duha v Javorci.
Posvečena je padlim
avstro-ogrskim branilcem tolminskega bojišča soške fronte (1915–1917).
Kot najlepši spomenik 1. svetovne
vojne na ozemlju Republike Slovenije se je leta 2007 uvrstila med zgodovinske
spomenike, ki nosijo znak EVROPSKE KULTURNE DEDIŠČINE
Je tudi ena izmed postaj na
zgodovinski poti Pot miru, ki povezuje spomenike in ostaline 1. svetovne vojne
v Zgornjem Posočju.
Nad vhodnimi vrati je napis:
Ta spomenik so med vojno zgradili
pripadniki 3. gorske brigade, borbene enote 15. korpusa, v čast in spomin na
njihove tukaj padle tovariše. Grajeno v času od 1. marca do 1. novembra 1916.
Objekt je zasnoval dunajski
slikar in scenograf Remigius Geyling (1878–1974), tedaj nadporočnik,
organizacijo in vodenje gradnje pa je prevzel poročnik madžarskega rodu Géza
Jablonszky.
Zgradili so jo avstro-ogrski
vojaki, mojstri različnih obrti; iz kamenja obzidje in spodnji del, iz
macesnovega lesa pa zgornji del konstrukcije.
Z razgledne terase ob cerkvi se
razgrinja pogled na veličastni Rdeči rob, očarljivo verigo tolminsko-bohinjskih
gora ter zaobjame valovito mehkobo okoliških hribov.
Nad vhodom se dviga zvonik s
sončno uro, grbom monarhije in napisom PAX (mir). Zunanjščino krasijo tudi grbi
dvajseterice dežel, ki so sestavljale Avstro- Ogrsko.
V notranjosti je na hrastovih
ploščah, ki simbolizirajo liste spominske knjige, po sistemu vojaške hierarhije
vžganih 2564 imen na okoliških bojišcih padlih avstro-ogrskih vojakov,
pokopanih na Ločah pri Tolminu.
Cerkev je leta 2016 praznovala
stoto obletnico izgradnje. Ker je grajena pretežno iz lesa, zahteva stalno
vzdrževanje. Temeljito je bila obnovljena leta 1934, v začetku 80. let
prejšnjega stoletja in leta 2005. Junija 2016 so restavratorji Zavoda za
varstvo kulturne dediščine zaključili z obsežnejšimi restavratorskimi deli,
predvsem z obnovo poslikav zgornjega dela in stropa cerkvene ladje, s prenovo
nekaterih delov dotrajanega pohištva, beljenjem zakristije in obnovo vhodnih
vrat. Lepo vabljeni v prenovljeno svetišče.
JAVORCA,MEMORIAL CHURCH OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
High above the stream of the Tolminka rises a wooden shrine
– the Memorial Church in Javorca.
The Memorial Church of the Holy Spirit in Javorca is
dedicated to fallen Austro-Hungarian defenders of the Tolmin battlefield on the
Soča (Isonzo) Front (1915–1917).
As the finest monument to the First World War in the
territory of Slovenia, in 2007 the church was classed as a historical monument
bearing the EUROPEAN CULTUAR HERITAGE SING
(Znak evropske dediščine)
It is also one of the stations along the historical Path of
Peace trail, which links together monuments and remains from the First World
War in the upper Soča region.
Over the entrance door the inscription reads:
This monument was built during the war by members of the 3rd
Mountain Brigade, a battle unit of the15th Corps, in honour and memory of their
comrades who fell here. Built in the period from 1 March to 1 November 1916.
The building was designed by the Vienna painter and stage
set designer Remigius Geyling (1878–1974), then a first lieutenant, while the
organisation and management of the construction was headed by the
Hungarian-born Lieutenant Géza Jablonszky.
It was built by Austro-Hungarian soldiers who were skilled
in various trades; the walls and lower section are of stone, while the upper
part of the construction is of larch.
The viewing terrace by the church reveals a vista of the
magnificent Rdeči Rob (Red Margin), the enchanting chain of the Tolmin-Bohinj
mountains, and also takes in the rolling gentleness of the surrounding hills.
Above the entrance rises the bell tower with a sundial, the
imperial crest and the inscription PAX (peace). The exterior is also adorned
with the crests of the 20 provinces that made up Austria-Hungary.
In the interior, scorched into oak panels symbolising the
pages of a memorial book, in the system of the military hierarchy are the 2564
names of Austro- Hungarian soldiers who fell in surrounding battlefields and
are buried at Loče near Tolmin.
