Maister na poti

Maister na poti je tematsko zamišljen geolov, katerega teoretična podlaga je Maistrova virtualna pot: https://www.rudolfmaister.si/ Zakladi so postavljeni kot posamezne postaje v krajih z zemljevida Maistrove virtualne poti: na Ptuju, v Trebnjem, Kostanjevici na Krki, Kamniku, Mengšu, Kranju, Ljubljani, na Uncu pri Rakeku, na gradu Snežnik, v Celju, Mariboru, Dravogradu, Libeličah in na Zavrhu v Slovenskih goricah. Sledi in zaklade o Maistru lahko odkrijete zunaj na prostem, v muzejih, knjižnicah ter morda še kje, kar vam niti v sanjah ne bi prišlo na misel.

Maistrovo pot lahko začnete na kateri koli postaji in jo tudi nadaljujete na kateri koli, vrstni red ni pomemben. Na tej poti boste odkrivali, kdo je bil general in pesnik Rudolf Maister ter kako pomembno vlogo je odigral v zgodovini Slovencev. Morda le še dvoje: ali ste vedeli, da je Maister zarisal nove meje na zemljevidu Evrope po prvi svetovni vojni oz. veliki vojni; ali ste vedeli, da je Maister postavil temelje današnji slovenski državi?!

 

Rudolf Maister v Mengšu

Kdaj točno so se Maistrovi iz Kamnika preselili v Mengeš, je naloga za kakšnega sodobnega Sherlocka Holmesa; po podatkih iz mrliške knjige župnije Mengeš bi bilo to leta 1876, kajti 1. junija je tu umrl Rudolfov najstarejši brat Artur. V dopisu Upraviteljstva državne narodne šole Mengeš banovinskemu arhivarju v Maribor pa je leto selitve 1880. Kot najemniki so Maistrovi do leta 1883 živeli v hiši, ki se ji je po domače reklo pri Gabru, oz. v Velikem Mengšu 70. Hiša še stoji, je pa spremenjena. V osnovno šolo je Rudolf začel hoditi 1880/81 v mežnariji, ki še danes stoji ob župnijski cerkvi sv. Mihaela. Čeprav je Rudolf v Mengšu preživel kar nekaj let, pa za to ve le malo ljudi. Le zakaj?

Maister on his way

Maister on His Way is a thematically conceived geocaching hunt, the theoretical basis of which is Maister's virtual journey: https://www.rudolfmaister.si/. The treasures are placed in the form of individual stations in the locations from the map of Maister's virtual path: in Ptuj, Trebnje, Kostanjevica na Krki, Kamnik, Mengeš, Kranj, Ljubljana, Unec pri Rakeku, Snežnik Castle, Celje, Maribor, Dravograd, Libeliče and Zavrh v Slovenskih goricah. You can discover Maister's tracks and treasures outdoors, in museums, libraries, and perhaps in some other places that you would never have thought you would.

You can start Maister's journey at any station and also continue it at any other, the order is not important. On this journey, you will discover who the general and poet Rudolf Maister was and how important a role he played in the history of the Slovenians. Just two more points: did you know that Maister drew new borders on the map of Europe after World War I, also known as the Great War; did you know that Maister laid the foundations of today's Slovenian state?!

 

Rudolf Maister in Mengeš

Finding out when exactly the Maisters moved from Kamnik to Mengeš is a task for a modern-day Sherlock Holmes; according to information from the death register of the Mengeš parish this would have been in 1876, because Rudolf's eldest brother Artur died here on 1 June. In a letter sent by the management of the Mengeš state primary school in 1935 to the Banovina archivist in Maribor, the year of their relocation is given as being 1880. The Maisters lived as tenants in a house locally called pri Gabru, whith the address Veliki Mengeš 70. The house is still standing, but has been altered. Rudolf Maister started primary school in Mengeš at the mežnarija (sexton’s house), which still stands beside the parish church of St. Michael. Even though Rudolf spent quite a few years in Mengeš, few people know this fact. Why is it so?
