Holiday apartment in Martjanci: St. Martin's Church, cycling route and pond

Martjanci brings together a range of distinct local features: architecture, routes, an annual hiking event and a small landscape area. At times, a detail of the architecture takes centre stage; at others, it is the course of a route, a traditional event or a small landscape area. It is precisely these different scales that make the special features of the place tangible.

Culture

St. Martin's Church in Martjanci is considered an exceptional monument of national importance. Inside are frescoes by Janez Aquila depicting episodes from the life of Saint Martin; at the same time, these frescoes give the church significance beyond the local area. A Latin inscription on St. Martin's Church states that the church was built in 1392 in honour of saints whose relics are kept there. The church interior also contains a marble high altar, made in 1925 based on a design by the architect Jože Plečnik. St. Martin's Church can be visited by arrangement with the parish office in Martjanci.

Cycling

The Po bregaj cycling route is a signposted circular route with a clearly described course. It leads from Moravske Toplice via Martjanci, Sebeborci, Andrejci and Zgornji Moravci back to Moravske Toplice. The circular cycling route is 16 kilometres long and runs entirely along paved roads. The route is signposted on the ground and is suitable for recreational cyclists. The sequence of places makes the course easy to follow, while the specified length and paved surface define the route as a clearly delineated circular trail.

Paths and traditions

The Martinov pohod is a traditional annual hiking excursion that attracts numerous hikers from near and far. Tastings of local specialities are part of the experience along the route. The Martinov pohod ends with a traditional baptism of the new wine. In addition, the Martjanska pot partly follows the Pomurska planinska pot, the European long-distance hiking trail E7 and the Martinova pot. Martjanci therefore combines both a regularly held hiking event and a path connected to several higher-level routes.

Nature

The pond area restored in Martjanci covers approximately 0.56 ha. Paths have been created around the body of water, and two footbridges and two bridges have also been built. The small area is therefore clearly structured by its paths and built crossings.
