Church of St. Anthony Kobarid
The next day was special because it was all about food. As I mentioned, Ana Ros has a restaurant that has been awarded three Michelin stars. Hisa Franko, which is also a hotel, is located just under two hours from Ljubljana, so we decided to have lunch there.
The journey is very beautiful, as it largely passes through a nature park. We arrived at our destination quite early and I spotted a large building on a hill. So we drove up there briefly.
This is the Church of Saint Antony, around which a large memorial to Italian war dead was built, also known as The Italian Charnel House. Over 7,000 Italian soldiers who fell during the Battle of Isonzo in the First World War are buried in the complex. It was built between 1936 and 1938, and Mussolini attended the opening ceremony. The style also reflects the period in which it was built.
The view alone is worth the trip.
