SGF: Seria GEMERSKYCH kostolov so stredovekymi FRESKAMI

Series from GEMER region - churches with medieval FRESCOES

Krasnohorske Podhradie




SK:
Kostol rimskokatolicky Vsetkych svatych sa spomina uz okolo 1330-1340, prestavovali ho v polovici 15. storocia (polygonalna svatyna so sietovou klenbou), v 16. storoci rozsirili lod na juznej strane, po poskodeni Turkami ho v roku 1787 rozsirili v klasicistickom slohu a postavili vezu, a v roku 1895 ho dali Andrassyovci obnovit. Nakolko bohatstvo rodiny narastalo z bani a obyvatelia Podhradia boli tiez banici, na viacerych miestach – aj nad dverami do sakristie – najdete banicky znak: prekrizene kladiva. V 80-tych rokoch 20. storocia objavili a restaurovali na severnej stene lode goticku nastennu malbu – fresku – s postavami uhorskych kralovskych svatcov: Stefana, Ladislava a Imricha. Predpoklada sa, ze malby sa ukryvaju aj na dalsich miestach, kde zostali stredoveke muriva kostola.
Oproti brane do kostolneho arealu uvidite aj staru budovu obecnej skoly a smerom k hlavnej ceste mozete navstivit Andrassyovsku obrazaren v peknej secesnej budove z r. 1908, ktoru podla projektu budapestianskeho architekta Dezidera Hultla dal postavit Dionyz Andrassy pre svoju zbierku obrazov.

EN:
The Roman-catholic All Saints church is firstly mentioned about 1330-1340, in the middle of the 15th century it was rebuilt (a polygonal presbytery with a net-vaulting was erected), in the 16th century the nave was enlarged to the south, after damages caused by the Ottoman invasion the church was repaired in Classicistic Style and enlarged by a tower in 1787 and in 1895 the renewal was ordered by the Andrassy family. As the fortune of the family grew from the mining industry and the inhabitance from Podhradie were miners too, you can find the mining-sign: two crossed hammers – on various places, also above the entrance to the sacristy. In the 80-ies of the 20th century on the northern wall of the nave a Gothic wall-painting – a fresco – was discovered and restored: figures of the three Hungarian royal saints: Stephanus, Ladislaus and Emericus. It is presumed that there could be following medieval wall paintings on the walls of the medieval church.
At the entrance gate to the church area across the road there is an old grammar school and walking toward the high road you may visit a nice Art Nouveau Style building with a picture gallery – the project was made by Hultl Dezso, architect from Budapest, ordered by Denes Andrassy for his painting-collection.
