The new edition of the brochure, based on the previous two editions from 1998 and 2008, with the original text by Fr. Božo Vuleta, attracts attention with its unique design signed by esteemed and award-winning local designer Boris Ljubičić, a native of Sinj. The priests of the sanctuary and the designer himself took part in bringing this brochure to life. Selected photographs perfectly complement the text.
The themes of the new publication include the history of the Franciscans’ arrival in this area, centuries of struggle for freedom, sketches of tireless construction, the literal – religious buildings that we know and admire today, and the spiritual – the creation of a community that is the heart of Sinj and Cetina region, but also much wider, like the Marian families; unwavering devotion to the Miraculous Lady of Sinj, artistic and spiritual uniqueness of the church and sanctuary, educational activities of the friars of Sinj, and the unbreakable connection of the Alka and Our Lady.
The brochure was printed in 3,000 copies, and by the end of March, in addition to the Croatian version, there should be translations in German and English.
