CATHEDRAL OF THE SAINTE-ASSOMPTION
Romanesque cathedral with two bell towers in Zagreb with paintings and sculptures and a priceless sacred treasure.
With its two bell towers (104 and 105 m), the cathedral is the highest religious building in the country. In Romanesque style, the first building (11th century) was destroyed by the Mongolian army. After the earthquake of 1880, the city's architect, Herman Bollé, a disciple of the Viennese Friedrich von Schmidt, redesigned it in neo-Gothic style. Inside there are paintings and sculptures, including the triptych of the Passion, signed Albrecht Dürer (1495), and a priceless sacred treasure.
