4.5Dakovo Cathedral(35 reviews) - Must see in Đakovo Spent < 1 hour Religious Sites • Churches & Cathedrals
The Đakovo Cathedral is definitely the must see place in Đakovo, it is something you cannot miss while here. It is a beautiful neoromanic style church and with its 84 metres it is the building that it is impossible not to see, it is even visible from the highway. The interior is even more beautiful looking than the exterior. I was there on a rainy day so the colors could not be seen as brightly as they would be on a sunny day, but it did not really take away its beauty. I am not sure if it is open all the time, when I was there, on a saturday around noon it was open and there were few people also visiting and those who worked there.See more..
Just about any centuries-old European church is worth a visit, by this one is both attractive and historically interesting. Site of Croatia's third longest nave, the church is a combination of an attractive high altar and several nice side altars. But take the time to read the signs (helpfully in English) that explain the origin, destruction, and reconstruction of these sacred elements. See the holes in the wall meant to house explosives to effect the destruction of the entire building. See the reconstructed altars. Learn about age old paintings destroyed by dozens of bullet holes. For American or Western European tourists who too often take church attendance for granted, consider what you would think if your neighbors from different churches inflicted this pain and damage on you.

St. John Capistrano (or Kapistrano) was a religious and military leader, who fought the ottoman Turks side-by-side with the Hungarian military leader Janos Hunyadi. He was a Franciscan friar of major influence and is credited with multiple healings in life. He was buried in Ilok, supposedly where the Sanctuary stands today. The Church and the Sanctuary inside, stand next to a Friary, which remains active today. The entire complex is on the land of the Ilok Castle, and historical castle of which only the main palace remains. This palace has been recently refurmished, reconstructed and today it houses the Ilok Historical and Archaelogical museum. The Museum is just a block or two from the church, so make time to visit both. The neo-Gothic church has lovely frescoes, both inside and outside, especially on the frontispice. Guided tours provide the best perspective of the historical significance of the complex. The view from the top of the belltower is spectacular.See more..
