One of the youngest wooden church construction in the region of Beskydy Mountains is the chapel of St. Anežka in Rakovec ? local part of Řepiště municipality. It was built in 1990 to the honour of canonization of the beatific Anežka Česká.
The construction was initiated, financed and performed by a local citizen Mr. Volný. Simple folk construction thus documents the strength of personal religious conviction and is a follow-up with this story of its origination to other constructions of chapels, crosses or statues from distant times, when such approach of the citizens was much more frequent.
Today the chapel of St. Anežka is combined in Řepiště with a stylish forest wooden rest place serving to both pedestrians as well as cyclists. There is also a wooden column with a picture of Mary the Virgin that puts the finishing touches to this place, making it become a small place of pilgrimage. In the middle of silence of wooden nature it thus offers a pleasant and meditative atmosphere.
