Built at the behest of local farmers to honour the memory of the son of the good doctor Šuman, it was originally intended to serve as a small church, where mass could be held for residents of the valley, and the commission for the design was given to renowned Slovene architect Jože Plečnik. However, these plans were never realised, and it was built in a similar style by the architect Martin Golob, which has led to some confusion amongst visitors who often mistake it for one of Plečnik’s own.
