Vinagora – Church, erected in honor of the virgin Mary, located near Krapina. The name of Vinegar comes from locating in this area for many centuries the vineyards.
In place of the Church in the sixteenth century was a statue of Mary that is venerated as the mother of God Winiarsky. The peasants in between came here to rest and pray. The statue does not suffer from the weather, was built a special shed. For prayer and worship people were coming from remote areas, and among them were not only the poor.
News of the miraculous statue was spreading wider and wider and soon built here a chapel, and the statue was installed inside. The number of pilgrims increased and were soon added two side chapels and a stone wall around the perimeter of the Holy place. So Vinagora got the shape of a cross and its present shape and size. Two sides to a build up stone stairs leading to the entrance of the temple.
Vinagora became famous for a large parish, but their priests. For a long time parish priests succeeded each other and worked on the maintenance of the parish and the Church itself.
During the existence of the parish were established many religious and cultural organizations, which allowed to improve the daily lives of parishioners. In the parish even published its own magazine. Today Vinagora also open to believers and is a local center of spiritual and cultural life.
