Church of St. Jurij, Spodnje Hoče

The Church of St. Jurij stands by the roundabout in Spodnje Hoče. Around the church, the old core of Spodnje Hoče developed. It is a Romanesque-Gothic parish church. The Gothic appearance of the church from the early 15th century is complemented by a Baroquized nave. Inside are two late Baroque altars by Jožef Holzinger.

It is the only church in Slovenia that preserves an original ancient crypt beneath it, consisting of two vaulted underground chambers, making it one of the oldest architectural structures in the country, nearly 1,000 years old. The Mithras sacrificial altar is a remnant of the Roman settlement area. Excavations on the church grounds have revealed an ancient villa and several Roman stones.
