St. Anastasia Church is a beacon of Samobor's history, with origins dating back to the 13th century, although its current appearance is predominantly Baroque. It is culturally significant for its architecture, altarpieces, and paintings, and for having been the center of the community's religious and social life for centuries. In addition, its bell towers are a distinctive feature of the town skyline.

The best time to visit St. Anastasia Church, like much of Croatia, is usually in spring or autumn, when the weather is milder and there are fewer tourists. During the day, try to go early in the morning or late in the afternoon to enjoy softer light, ideal for photography, and to avoid the strongest midday sun.

Given the age of St. Anastasia Church, accessibility for people with reduced mobility may be limited, especially at the entrance or in certain interior areas. It is recommended to contact the Samobor tourist office or the local parish in advance if you need wheelchair access or special assistance to confirm what facilities are available.
