点评:We are so lucky to have this local gem here to see. It’s a hidden treasure in Millvale that I wish more people knew about.
I have been lucky enough to gonna tour a few different times to see the church and murals at different times per year. Christmas is the best time to see them. The church is so beautifully decorated that time of year.
The guides do such a wonderful job of telling the story of Maxo Vanka, how he got to the US, and what they represent to his culture and people. He did such a great job of telling the story of Croatian history, its ups and downs and how strong their people were in getting through it all.
The preservation society does an amazing job of working with art restorers to keep these murals alive and so vibrant. I also love the lights they put on them to further highlight them.
Do yourself a favor and check these murals are. We’re so lucky to have these works of art here in Pittsburgh.

我有幸在一年中的不同时间多次参观这座教堂和壁画。圣诞节是欣赏它们的最佳时节。那时教堂的装饰美轮美奂。
导游们精彩地讲述了马克斯·万卡的故事,他如何来到美国,以及这些壁画对他的文化和人民的意义。他们也出色地讲述了克罗地亚的历史,包括它的兴衰起伏,以及克罗地亚人民如何坚韧不拔地克服重重困难。
文物保护协会与艺术修复师们密切合作,使这些壁画焕发活力,栩栩如生。我也很喜欢他们为壁画安装的灯光,让它们更加熠熠生辉。
一定要去看看这些壁画。我们匹兹堡能拥有这些艺术瑰宝,真是太幸运了。
