Zadar Cathedral, Romanesque cathedral in Zadar, Croatia

The Cathedral of Saint Anastasia stands as the largest church in Dalmatia, featuring a triple-nave structure with alternating stone columns and pilasters.

The cathedral's foundation dates to the 4th century, with major reconstructions in the 12th and 13th centuries following damage during the Fourth Crusade.

The cathedral houses the sarcophagus containing the remains of Saint Anastasia, brought from Constantinople by Bishop Donatus in the early 9th century.

The cathedral opens daily for visitors, offering guided tours that include access to the bell tower and the religious art museum.

The Gothic ciborium above the main altar, created in 1322, demonstrates the cathedral's architectural evolution from Romanesque to Gothic styles.
