Makarska Co-cathedral, Baroque cathedral in Makarska, Croatia

The Makarska Co-cathedral features a terracotta-tipped belfry that rises prominently above the central square, marking the center of the town.

Construction of the cathedral started in 1700 under Bishop Nikola Bijanković, and despite remaining incomplete, the building received consecration in 1756.

The cathedral houses a religious treasury containing liturgical items crafted by Venetian, Italian, and Austrian artisans, representing regional artistic connections.

The cathedral maintains regular services under the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Split-Makarska and welcomes visitors interested in religious architecture.

The right altar contains the bones of St. Clement, transferred from Roman catacombs in 1725, establishing the saint as patron of Makarska.
