Novo Mesto Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Novo Mesto, Slovenia
The cathedral features a broken longitudinal axis where the chancel rises higher than the nave, creating distinct vertical proportions against the skyline.
The original structure, mentioned in 1428, underwent reconstruction from 1493 to 1623, transforming from a modest church into a substantial cathedral.
The interior displays Tintoretto's painting 'The Vision of Saint Nicholas' from 1582, commissioned by provost Polidoro de Montagnana after a fire restoration.
Located on Kapiteljska ulica 16, the cathedral stands on a hill above the Krka River, serving as the main religious center of Novo Mesto Diocese.
The cathedral incorporates three Baroque chapels on each side of the nave, added by 1621, combining Gothic architecture with Baroque elements.
