Stop point - Šmartno na Pohorju

The small village of Šmartno on the southern side of Pohorje has been inhabited since ancient times. This is evidenced by the Roman tomb with the relief of Orpheus, which is located in the southern wall of the church of St. Martin. The church was built in the late Gothic style in the first third of the 13th century. Of particular interest is the 32 medallions in 4 rows on the presbytery's triumphal arch, representing the saints of the universal church. The church is largely Baroque, with the statue of the Virgin Mary by Joseph Andreas Strauss in 1755. The high altar is the work of Joseph Holzinger from 1777 - 1779.
