St. Mark's Church

Trg Svetog Marka 5, 10000, Zagreb, Croatia

Description:

One of the visiting cards of Zagreb today is the Church of St. Mark. It was built in the thirteenth century, but since then has undergone many restorations and reconstructions. A distinctive feature of the church is its roof of white, red and blue tiles, which makes it look like a toy. On its stingray is laid the coat of arms of Croatia and the emblem of the city. At the south side of the building are fifteen beautiful Gothic sculptures made by I. Parler. Among them are the Virgin and Joseph and the infant Jesus, and the twelve apostles.

How do I get there?

The church is located in Upper Zagreb near the parliament. You can get there by bus.
