Church of St. Andrew, Vrhovlje pri Kožbani

If Kojsko boasts the oldest wing altar, the Church of St. Andrew boasts the oldest frescoes in the Brda area. The presbytery and the triumphal wall are painted with them. Other scenes include scenes from the life of the Holy Family and depictions of saints and apostles. Particularly interesting are the images of angels with various instruments from the time when the frescoes were painted in the second half of the 15th century. The church stands above the village and belongs to the coastal type, which has a so-called shed in front of the entrance - a covered space and a bell tower with spindle. In the past, it was covered with stone tiles - “škrle”.
