Abstract:After the discovery of an archive document regarding an underground crypt beneath the f loors of the Church of St. Margaret (Sv. Marjeta) in Dol pri Ljubljani, Slovenia, further research was carried out to confirm its presence. An area filled with construction waste was discovered during a recent small-scale renovation of the church floor. This finding suggested the potential underground chamber may have been partly filled in during one of the previous restorations. A non-invasive GPR study was carried out along eight profiles inside the church to prove the existence of an underground crypt. Results show the presence of an air-filled chamber, confirmed later by a hole drilled in the floor. Additional findings in the church archive and pictures taken by a camera, lowered through a drilled hole, revealed three previously unknown caskets in the crypt. According to the archives, two of them belong to Baron Wolf Daniel Erberg and his wife who died in 1783 and 1774, respectively.

Title:Uporaba georadarja (GPR) za zaznavo kripte pod tlakovanimi tlemi cerkve
Abstract:Po odkritju uradnega dokumenta o obstoju podzemne kripte pod tlemi cerkve Sv. Marjete v Dolu pri Ljubljani v Sloveniji so bile za njeno potrditev izvedene nadaljnje raziskave. Med nedavno manjšo prenovo tal v cerkvi so odkrili območje, zapolnjeno z gradbenimi odpadki. Ta ugotovitev nakazuje, da je bil morebiten podzemni prostor verjetno zasut med eno od prejšnjih obnov. Da bi zagotovili več dokazov o obstoju kripte na neinvaziven način, so bile v notranjosti cerkve izvedene georadarske meritve v osmih profilih. Rezultati kažejo na obstoj kripte, napolnjene z zrakom, kar je bilo kasneje potrjeno z izvrtano luknjo v tleh. Novi dokumenti, najdeni v arhivu in posnetki kamere, spuščene skozi luknjo v tleh, so razkrili tri prej neznane krste v kripti. Glede na arhivske podatke, dve od njih pripadata baronu Wolfu Danielu Erbergu ter njegovi ženi, ki sta umrla v letih 1783 in 1774.
