Our Lady of Remete, Catholic church in Maksimir district, Zagreb, Croatia.

The church building stands near green spaces with white walls and a pointed tower designed by architect Hermann Bollé in Gothic style.

The initial construction began in 1319 where hermits known as Pauline Fathers gathered, with the first written records of a monastic community dating from 1288.

The interior contains exceptional frescoes by Pauline master Ivan Ranger, earning the church recognition as the second most important Marian pilgrimage site in central Croatia.

The church maintains regular services and welcomes visitors throughout the week, with convenient access from Zagreb's public transportation system.

Following earthquakes in 1880 and 1881, architect Hermann Bollé restored the church, modifying several original Baroque elements to align with Gothic architectural preferences.
