The church, the oldest parish church in the Grosuplje municipality, was first mentioned in documents in 1228, and some historians believe the \u0160marje parish was established as early as 1058. Built in the Romanesque style as a three-aisled basilica, it underwent significant changes at the end of the 15th century, gaining new vaults and a presbytery. The church contains Gothic paintings and frescoes by \u0160tefan \u0160ubic. During the Turkish invasions, the church and its surrounding wall served as an anti-Turkish fortification, of which only one tower, known as Turen\u010dek, remains visible.<\/p>\n\n<p>Turen\u010dek consists of a tower and two building wings. The creation of the \u0160marje fortification complex is believed to be linked to the period when the parish was incorporated into the Sti\u010dna Monastery.<\/p>\n\n<p>The \u0160marje fort belonged to the highest category of forts, featuring residential buildings, granaries, lookout towers, and specially fortified towers for refuge. These complexes, typical of the late 15th century, were a response to the fear of Turkish invasions with lootings and massacres. The fortification presumably had five sides and four towers, two guarding the entrance to the south and the other two at the eastern and western ends. The northern side housed granaries for safely storing food supplies and defending the walls.<\/p>\n\n<p>As mentioned by Valvasor, the fort was still intact by the 17th century, but it disappeared from the Josephine military map by the end of the 18th century. After the Turkish threat subsided, the walls were removed, some of the building materials were used to construct baroque side chapels, and the new facade of the expanded church was emphasised. Defensive ditches were also filled in.<\/p>\n\n<p>Today, Turen\u010dek houses an ethnological collection of antiquities, peasant, and religious objects collected by the long-serving \u0160marje parish priest Jo\u017ee Mrvar. The hall hosts exhibitions, cultural events, and discussions. The lower floors contain a chapel.<\/p>\n\n<p>\n          <strong>Turen\u010dek<\/strong>\n        <\/p>\n\n<p>The only remaining tower and corridors of Turen\u010dek mark the remnants of one of the <strong>best-constructed anti-Turkish forts<\/strong>. By the end of the 18th century, when the Turkish threat had passed, the function of these forts became redundant. Many medieval walls and forts built around village churches were dismantled, creating open spaces often filled with <strong>linden trees<\/strong>, as seen in \u0160marje.<\/p>\n\n<p>In \u0160marje, the northwest tower was preserved in memory of the significant battles for the Slovenian nation. It contains two halls, each in a separate floor, now serving for various events and exhibitions. For a deeper understanding of the forts, it is suggested to also visit the fort above Cerovo, which was built by farmers themselves (the \u0160marje fort received funding from the Sti\u010dna Abbey). Documents attest that Turen\u010dek housed a school as early as 1504.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":62052,"template":"","class_list":["post-63683","znamenitosti","type-znamenitosti","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Turen\u010dek | Visit Grosuplje<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/visitgrosuplje.si\/en\/sights\/turencek\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Turen\u010dek | Visit Grosuplje\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Turen\u010dek, part of the historical Church of the Nativity of Mary in \u0160marje \u2013 Sap, represents a unique architectural fragment of an anti-Turkish fortification.
