Audio Guide of St. Anthony of Padua Franciscan Church

The church is open daily, but hours vary depending on religious services and the season. We recommend contacting the parish office (+385 48 624 344) or checking the Koprivnica Tourism website: visitkoprivnica.hr.

Admission is free, although voluntary donations for maintenance are appreciated. Special activities such as guided tours may have an additional cost.

Plan for 30 to 45 minutes to appreciate the Baroque architecture, historic frescoes, and the main altar. If you visit the adjacent cloister, add 15 more minutes.

Built in 1685 as part of the Franciscan complex, it is a symbol of Koprivnica’s spiritual and cultural heritage. It stands out for its 18th-century frescoes and historic organ.

Spring and autumn offer pleasant temperatures and fewer crowds. Weekday mornings are quieter. In summer, take advantage of organ concerts and cultural events.

The main entrance has steps. The central nave is accessible with assistance, but the tower and monastic areas have limitations. Ask the parish for specific support options.

A 5-minute walk away are the Koprivnica City Museum (in Draskovic Castle), the old St. Nicholas Chapel, and Market Square with Secessionist architecture. More at: tzkoprivnica.hr.

Dress modestly out of respect for the sacred space. Flash-free photography is allowed outside Mass times. For guided tours with historical context, contact the local tourist office (+385 48 658 333).
