Zagreb Cathedral, Zagreb Overview

No matter where you are in Zagreb, the twin peaks of this gothic-styled Zagreb Cathedral and its rare architecture are considered the most gorgeous in the south-east of the Alps. It is a French architectural marvel with narrow windows, arches, and gorgeous sculptures.

Its ground plan and cross-ribbed arches inside the three polygonal apses adorned with narrow windows are symbolic of French architecture. A few modern architectural and sculptural inclusions involve German and Czech influences. The cathedral is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary and its construction finished in 1217 and was consecrated by King Andrew II (1205-1235). Over the centuries it was destroyed by fire, war and earthquakes and reconstructed several times with various new inventories and design influences adorning its walls and halls. Even still construction works keep certain areas closed for tourists but still it is the place to be (for the simple reason that it is unmissable!) if you’re ever in Zagreb.
