The earliest written records of the church date back to the first half of the 16th century. Since that time, the church has become well-known for the traditional pilgrimage on Saint Stephen’s Day (26 December) when residents of the surrounding villages bring their horses to be blessed. 

The second patron saint in this church is Saint Lawrence whose name day is celebrated in August. 

The church altar was designed by the renowned local architect Ivan Vurnik.
