Sisak Cathedral, Art Nouveau cathedral in Sisak, Croatia
The Cathedral of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross stands in the center of Sisak on Ban Jelačić Square with its single spire and neoclassical facade.
The cathedral, completed in 1765, underwent substantial modifications after an earthquake in 1909, replacing its original Baroque facade with Neoclassical and Art Nouveau elements.
The building serves as the main religious center for over 163,000 Catholics in the Diocese of Sisak, established by Pope Benedict XVI in December 2009.
The cathedral sustained considerable damage during the 2020 Petrinja earthquake, making the structure temporarily inaccessible for regular religious services and visits.
Throughout its existence, the cathedral has endured multiple reconstructions due to earthquakes and war damage, reflecting the resilience of local architectural heritage.
