Residence of Bukovinian and Dalmatian Metropolitans
Residence of Bukovinian and Dalmatian Metropolitans, Orthodox metropolitan residence in Chernivtsi, Ukraine
The architectural ensemble spreads across multiple buildings with red-brick facades, decorative stone carvings, and varied ecclesiastical architectural elements from different European traditions.
Czech architect Josef Hlávka designed this religious administrative center between 1864 and 1882, incorporating Byzantine, Gothic, and Renaissance architectural elements into the structure.
The building complex demonstrates the religious authority of Eastern Orthodox Christianity in the region through its grand halls, seminary, chapel, and monastery.
The residence currently functions as part of Chernivtsi National University, offering guided tours through its historical halls, chapel, and landscaped gardens.
The clock tower features Stars of David in recognition of the Jewish community's contribution to the construction of this Orthodox Christian complex.
