St. Jacob Church, Parish church and monument at Cankarjev trg, Škofja Loka, Slovenia.
The church features Gothic architectural elements with a tall bell tower visible throughout the town and detailed ceiling decorations inside the building.
Constructed in 1471 on foundations from two centuries prior, the church received significant modifications by architect Jože Plečnik in the 20th century.
The Renaissance altarpiece of Saint Catherine from 1694 and ceiling frescoes by Jernej of Loka represent local artistic achievements from different periods.
Located at Cankarjev trg 13, the church maintains regular service schedules and contains a metal 3D relief map of the town at its entrance.
The interior combines late Gothic structural elements with 16th-century frescoes and black marble decorative features from the late 17th century.
