| 説明 | Gornji Grad–Medveščak | Kamenita ulicaStone Gate: the main entry into today’s Upper City. Namely, by the directive of the Hungarian King Bela IV, and for protection from Mongol attacks in the year 1241 high fortifications were built with towers around today’s Upper City into which controlled entry was possible then only through the small gates Dverce from the south-west side or through the Stone Gate from the eastern side of the newly erected ramparts.The history and hostile forces of the wars of those days caused many fires which in 1645, 1674, 1706 and 1731 ravaged Gradec, and in which the Stone Gate suffered several times.In connection with the last fire a legend developed. Namely, in an apartment on the first floor of the building above the Stone Gate Mrs. Modlar and her neighbours, just following the fire, in ashes on the floor found a depiction of the Virgin Mother Mary with the child Jesus portrayed as the Queen of Angels. (The author and dating of this painting is to this day unknown, although it is considered to be the valuable work of a local master from the 16th or 17th century). Even though the frame of the painting was burned during the fire the painting remained entirely undamaged which was almost unbelievable considering that all the wooden parts of the building had been entirely destroyed by fire. This was a miracle, concluded the finders, and from that day the painting was attributed with miraculous powers. The widow Modlar raised an altar under the vault of the Stone Gate with the miraculous painting over which an inscription was placed: «Aid in all distress and against fires». The altar was opened to the public, and the painting could even be touched until 1778 when the city government erected an artistically forged iron fence by the locksmith Ivan Juraj Chorth, which is today considered the most beautiful and largest example of baroque smithery in northern Croatia.The “Painting of the Blessed Virgin Mary under the Stone Gate” is there today and the tiles with inscriptions of gratitude attached to the wall about it are a witness to the power of human will, trust and faith. |
