The information board placed next to the church of St. Dimitri will soon be replaced by a new one, and the information about the existence of a two-altar church - Orthodox and Catholic - will be corrected.
Until that happens, at the insistence of Rad Radović, the parish priest of the Kolašin SPC, the representatives of the Regional Development Agency, who installed the board, which talks about the church from the time of the Ottoman Empire in Smajlagića Polje, covered the current data with a corrector.
"It's unverified information and I've asked for the board to be replaced with a new one that won't have that on it"
The sentences, which were problematic for the parish priest of Kolašin, tell about how, according to the records of Russian scientist and publicist Pavle Rovinski, who came to Kolašin in 1886, the church in Smajlagića Polje, which was demolished by the Turks, "had two honorable tables, for Orthodox and Catholics".
It is further stated that the church served Catholics, because there were the most of them among the miners of the Brskovo mine, and as stated, they were Saxons from today's Germany.
Radović, by the way the brother of SPC Metropolitan Amfilohi, confirmed to "Vijesta" that he was bothered by the information about the two venerable tables, because, as he said, they were incorrect.
"This is unverified information and I asked that the board be replaced with a new one, which will not have that on it. Rovinski is talking about two boards, and local historians have concluded that it is about tables, which is not true," said Radović.
Ivan Guberinić from RRA for Bjelasica, Komove and Prokletije claims that they got the data for all the information boards in Kolašin, as well as in other cities, from Sara Tezić, an expert consultant for cultural tourism.
"It is true that we were asked by Jerej Radović to change the board with that information. That will be done soon. We have been in this area for eight years and have implemented projects that have brought many benefits, so it was this time as well. With the blessing of the parish, they installed "We have a board in the yard of the church and it is our duty to comply with their request. If they didn't want it, we couldn't even put the board in that place," Guberinić said.
He assessed that the municipality of Kolašin gained a lot from the installation of information boards, because they contain a lot of important information about the cultural and historical sights of that city.
And as the rule is that what is hidden or "censored" arouses greater interest, the part that, at the request of the Kolašin parish priest, was covered with a proofreader and is now partially readable.
The curious, meanwhile, partially removed the applied layer. Only the English part is now covered by the proofreader.
