Church of Saint Michael, Baroque Catholic church in Tvrđa district, Osijek, Croatia
The Church of Saint Michael stands as a two-tower religious structure with seven altars, featuring ornate decorations and baroque architectural elements throughout its interior.
Construction of the church began in 1725 on the site of a former Ottoman mosque, with the first Mass celebrated in 1734 and final completion in 1768.
The main altar honors Saint Michael while six additional altars pay tribute to various saints including John Nepomuk, Otilia, and Teresa of Ávila.
The church remains an active parish within the Archdiocese of Đakovo-Osijek, offering regular religious services and maintaining its historical significance for visitors.
During the Croatian War of Independence in 1991, the church sustained damage but underwent complete restoration work in 1999 to preserve its architectural heritage.
