Sažetak
The paper analyses the contribution of the priest Adam Muchtin to the acceptance of the idea of construction, the construction itself and the liturgical furnishing of the parish church of St. Therese of the Child Jesus in Donja Vežica. In the period from the end of the 1930s to the 1960s, Muchtin imagines and brings the church – which at that time belongs to the Diocese of Senj – Modruš – into its present state. Muchtin cooperated with the painter Carmine Butcovich Visintin, who in 1942 painted a fresco of St. Therese in glory, in the apse of the church. This painter has greatly influenced the quality of the Rev. Muchtin’s paintings. The author points out that the biggest and most complex Muchtin’s achievement is the floor of the church, with paving stones producing a very suggestive play of symbols and shapes. As parish priest, Adam Muchtin constantly enriched the church with his efforts, liturgical utensils, paintings and compositions of Christmas cribs for which he became widely known.
