Štanjel (pronounced [ˈʃtaːnjɛu̯]; Italian: San Daniele del Carso[2]) is a village in the Municipality of Komen in the Littoral region of Slovenia.[3] It is located on the Karst Plateau overlooking the Vipava Valley. In the 17th century it was fortified to defend it against Ottoman raids. It was heavily damaged during World War II and it has been slowly rebuilt since.

History

Because of its geographical location it has been an important settlement in the area since the Iron Age. The development of the settlement reached its peak in the Romanesque period,[4] although Gothic elements in architecture have also been preserved.

During World War II the village served as a smaller base for the German occupation units, and was heavily damaged during the Allied bombing at the end of the war. After the war it was gradually renovated. After the war, a notable resident of the village was the graphic artist Lojze Spacal.

Landmarks

Prophet Daniel Parish Church

Castle

The castle of Štanjel was built in the Middle Ages, its final reconstruction which remains up to this day was made at the end of the 17th century by the Counts of Cobenzl. An art gallery with a permanent collection of Spacal's work is in the castle.[5]

Churches

The Parish Church of the Prophet Daniel was built in the 15th century as the burial vault of the Counts of Cobenzl.[6] The lemon-shaped church tower was built in 1609.

A smaller church dedicated to Saint Gregory was also built on the neighboring hill in the 15th century, where Max Fabiani's grave is located. The town walls that surround most of the village were also built in the 15th century to protect the settlement from the Ottoman raids.[7]
