description |
the residence of bukovinian and dalmatian metropolitans represents a masterful synergy of architectural styles built by czech architect josef hlavka from 1864 to 1882. the property, an outstanding example of 19th-century historicist architecture, also includes a seminary and monastery and is dominated by the domed, cruciform seminary church with a garden and park. the complex expresses architectural and cultural influences from the byzantine period onward and embodies the powerful presence of the orthodox church during habsburg rule, reflecting the austro-hungarian empire policy of religious tolerance. |
