Co-cathedral of Christ the King in Belgrade, Catholic co-cathedral in Vračar, Belgrade, Serbia
The Co-cathedral of Christ the King is a three-nave basilica featuring Romanesque Revival design, with Corinthian columns and decorative mosaics adorning its brick facade. The structure stands out for its distinctive arched windows and detailed ornamentation throughout.
The structure was built in 1924 as St. Ladislav Church and expanded in 1926 under Russian architect Aleksandar Bunin. It received its present designation as a co-cathedral in 1927.
The interior features several altars with statues of the Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph, accompanied by stained glass windows depicting religious scenes created by Italian artisans. The space reflects the international Catholic community that gathers here regularly.
The co-cathedral is located on Krunska Street and connects via a garden pathway to the Archdiocese building. Services are held regularly for the Catholic community, and visitors should check timings in advance to plan their visit appropriately.
During the 1926 expansion, one of the first pipe organs ever installed in Serbia was placed in the building. The instrument with multiple stops and two keyboards continues to function in the choir loft today, remaining a rare example of early organ music in the region.
