Church of St Michael
Church of St Michael Archangel (Herceg Novi-Montenegro)
The Church of St Michael the Archangel is located on the main square of the Old town at St Stephan Square, also known as Belavista Square. This church is one of the most beautiful examples of high rising architecture and one of the most important churches in Herceg Novi and its construction began in 1883. There were more architects working on the church, and the project was completed in 1905 by Milan Karlovac. The church was built from Korčula stone with ornamental elements of Roman-Gothic and Islamic culture and thus representing a successful blend of styles, making it one of the most beautiful churches in this area. The church was erected during the Austro-Hungarian rule over the city thanks to the people of Herceg Novi who first bought the land and then collected the funds to raise the church. The first church on this site was destroyed by the Turks, and the citizens of Herceg Novi bought it for 4602 forints.
