Once at Radna, due to the side facing stairs, you are overwhelmed by the beauty and grandeur of the church, who`s exterior resembles a castle, and you begin to understand the reason hundreds of worshipers come here to pray every year.The first documentary attestation is in 1440. In 1668 the Chapel of Franciscan Brothers receives a gift from Italy in the form of a paper printed icon. The same miraculous icon is being worshiped even today. 1695 is the year in which Ottoman soldiers set fire to the Franciscan Chapel of Radna. The only thing that escapes the fury of the flames is the icon printed on paper. After the Turks were expelled from Banat, a new church was built. The construction of the current church, in baroque style, started in 1752 and ended in 1782.
