The Church of St. Blaise in Vodnjan
Scientists are still unable to uncover the mystery of the undecomposed bodies that are preserved in this church
The church of St. Blaise in Vodnjan was built between 1760 and 1800 and is the largest church in the wider area.
The collection preserved in the church contains up to 370 relics from 250 Christian saints. Among them are preserved bodies, which are considered to be a phenomenon as scientists have not yet discovered what has prevented their decomposition. Besides the bodies, the clothes in which the saints were buried have also been preserved. The mummies are kept in glass coffins.

Jedinstven gradić koji svoju popularnost može zahvaliti crkvi čije su me relikvije oduševile. Čuda i neobjašnjivost neraspadanja mumija samo nas može i dalje fascinirati, no svakako je drugačije kada sve to uživo pogledate, a ne čitate. Svakako preporučujem!
