Церковь внутри горы была построена в 13 веке, но ее история началась
гораздо раньше и связана с весьма драматичными событиями. На этом месте
произошло братоубийство на почве ревности. Убийца, раскаявшись, стал
искать смерти на войне, но обрел покой только после того, как построил в
скале церковь. По его молитве прямо в часовне открылся источник,
который течет и в наши дни. Внутренние помещения – это естественные
пещеры, возможно где-то расширенные и приспособленные людьми для здания.
Единственной рукотворной стеной церквушки является фасад. Церковь
хорошо и далеко видно – она возвышается над городом почти на стометровой
высоте. К горной красавице ведут ступеньки, высеченные прямо в скале,
которые переходят в тоннель.

The church in the mountain was constructed in the 13th century, but its history began much earlier and is connected with very dramatic events. On this place there was a fratricide because of jealousy. The murderer, having repented, I began to look for death in the war, but I found rest only after constructed church in the rock. On his prayer directly in a chapel the source which flows and today opened. Internal rooms are natural caves, perhaps somewhere expanded and adapted by people for the building. The only man-made wall of a churchlet is the facade. Church well it is also far visible – it towers over the city almost at hundred-meter height. To the mountain beauty conduct the steps cut directly in the rock which pass into a tunnel.
