Assumption of Mary Church, Koper, Romanesque cathedral in Koper, Slovenia.

The Cathedral of the Assumption exhibits a triple-nave layout with three apses and incorporates Gothic elements on its western facade from 1392.

Following an earthquake in 1460, architects redesigned the cathedral facade with Renaissance characteristics, completing the transformation by 1488.

The cathedral displays numerous paintings from Venetian artists, including the valuable 1516 work 'Holy Conversation' by Vittore Carpaccio.

The four-story bell tower contains one of Slovenia's oldest bells from 1333 and remains accessible for religious ceremonies throughout the year.

The cathedral structure demonstrates the evolution of architectural styles through distinct periods, combining Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque elements.
