Capuchin Church of Our Lady of Lourdes, Roman Catholic church in Žabica district, Rijeka, Croatia
The church features a neo-Gothic facade decorated with mosaics and stone elements, extending 60 meters in length and 20 meters in width.
Construction began in 1904 under Provincial Bernardin Škrivanić, with the lower church completed in 1908 and dedicated to Mary, Consoler of Souls.
The interior displays ceiling paintings by Romolo Venucci and sculptural decorations by Venetian artist Urbano Bottasso and Rijeka stonecutter Antonio Marietti.
The church consists of two levels: the lower church serves as a foundation, while the upper church functions as the main basilica with three naves.
The church's construction funding came from pilgrims attracted by reports of a 'Saint Joan' who supposedly perspired blood during the tower foundation work.
