Specialist description
Najbolj znani slovenski arhitekt Jože Plečnik (1872–1957) se je lotil snovanja nove cerkve v Bogojini na povabilo tamkajšnjega župnika Ivana Baše. V načrt, ki ga je naredil leta 1924, je vključil staro cerkev, ki je v kompleksu nove cerkve Gospodovega vnebohoda postala njeno preddverje. Bogojinska cerkev je edinstvena po svoji arhitekturni zasnovi, v kateri se prepletajo pokrajinska stavbarska tradicija, klasični elementi in izvirne Plečnikove oblike. Te odsevajo v njenem notranjem in zunanjem videzu, kjer dominira valjasti zvonik, in v njeni notranji opremi, kjer izstopa leseni strop, okrašen s krožniki, ki jih je izdelal bogojinski lončar Martin Rožman.
