| Kotor, Church of St. Archangel Michael | Place | The Church of St. Archangel Michael is situated in the old town of Kotor. It is an Early Christian three-nave basilica with an apse on the Eastern side, which is semicircular on the inside and polygonal on the outside. It was probably built in the 6th century and equipped with liturgical furniture of the time, which was added in the 9th century. In the preserved apse are representations of Saints in fresco technique, of which only the lower halves have been preserved. In the first half of the 13th century the original church was demolished and a new single nave edifice was built in Romanesque-Gothic style dedicated to St. Archangel Michael. In the 15th century Lovro Dobričević painted the frescos in the church. The abbot of the church called Peter is mentioned in 1166 in a document regarding the consecration of the altar of the new Romanesque cathedral of St. Tryphon. In the 19th century the church became a military warehouse and is today a museum (lapidarium). |
