Cerkev Žalostne Matere božje je bila po Valvasorjevem poročilu zidana 1670. leta, dograjena pa najbrž šele 1797 (letnica, vsekana na vratih na ženski strani). Kip Žalostne Matere božje je cerkvi daroval mokronoški graščak Janez Kizelj.
Cerkev je v osnovi baročna zgradba z ravno zaključenim prezbiterijem in psevdogotskim stolpom. Glavni marmornat oltar ima letnico 1675, prezbiterij je poslikal F. Jelovšek, obojestranska baročna oltarja pa imata Metzingerjeve slike. V cerkvi visi vrsta votivnih podob. Pod cerkvijo je v breg vložena arhitektura 28 svetih stopnic iz črnega marmorja s kapelo sv. Križa na vrhu. Cerkev je postala znamenita božja pot. Sem so prihajali romarji z vse Dolenjske, s spodnje Štajerske, v velikem številu pa tudi Belokranjci, Kočevarji in Hrvati.
