The Chapel of the Dispersion of the Holy Apostles in Šagudovec

The chapel in Šagudovec was mentioned for the first time in 1669. Even then it was made of bricks, with a wooden tower and a bell. In 1901, a new chapel was constructed, and in 1964 a brick tower, housing two bells, was added to it. The chapel is 9 m long and 4 m wide. Both its interior and exterior were renovated in 1987. Throughout history it was damaged in a fire, so only few pieces of valuable inventory were preserved to this day. It was entirely renovated, inside and outside, and fenced between 2009 and 2012.
