The baroque cultural-sacred center of Požega

The Holy Trinity Square in Požega (Trg sv. Trojstva) surpasses all Croatian medieval squares in size, and it is the central place of political, economic, and cultural life still today. Its distinctive look is created by baroque bolts and the Plague Pillar (Kužni pil) in the center, a votive monument to the Holy Trinity erected in memory of the 798 residents of Požega who lost their battle with the plague in the 18th century.

The Holy Spirit church (crkva sv. Duha) is on the square with one of the largest Romanesque portals from the 13th century and the grave of the famous friar Luka Ibrišimović Sokol, who liberated Požega from the Ottomans. There is also the Gothic church of St. Lawrence with impressive frescoes from the 14th century.

A few minutes away is the "cathedral" square dominated by the baroque cathedral of St. Teresa of Avila. It was painted by world-renowned artists - Mato Celestin Medović and Oton Iveković, and valuable sacred objects are kept in the Treasury, including the miter and chasuble of its builder, Bishop Franjo Thauszy.

The Diocesan Museum is also on this square with an impressive collection of sacred objects and rich collections of modern and contemporary art, ethnographic, and graphic art, and a collection of plaques.
