The Baroque church of the monastery was erected in the second half of the 18th century upon the plans of the architect . It contains the oldest Medieval statue in Slovenia, the Velesovo Madonna, dated to 1220. The statue is a painted wooden Romanesque sculpture about half a meter tall from about 1220.
