About Katedrala sv. Lovre
The Katedrala sv. Lovre stands in Trogir’s historic centre on a small island linked by bridges to the mainland. The building brings together Romanesque, Gothic and later phases. The sculpted portal is one of the features that justify dedicating a visit to the church.
The portal by master Radovan displays figures and scenes carved in stone. Inside the complex, the Chapel of St. John represents another phase of local architecture and sculpture. The visit may include different sections, so it is advisable to check what is open and which accesses are part of the route.
The cathedral is part of the reading of Trogir’s World Heritage core. Notice the recessed façade from the square and then approach the portal to see the details. Services may affect entry, and the climb to the bell tower is a separate decision from the church visit.
