Zupna crkva franjevacki samostan svetog Nikole (Parish Church and the Fransiscan Monastery of St. Nicolas) Review

Cakovec's key ecclesiastical landmark was built between 1707 and 1728 on the site of a wooden monastery that burned down in 1699. The bell tower was added in the 1750s. Inside is a late-baroque altar decorated with elaborate statues; and on the outside is a facade from the turn of the 20th century (while Hungary ruled the region), with reliefs of several great Hungarian kings from ages past.
