The Minorite Church is a building representing the French Gothic style. Its characteristic feature is the octagonal bell tower with a flat gable. The most valuable monuments inside the church include the neo-Gothic altar by Ferdinand Hohenberg and the mosaic that is a reproduction of Leonardo da Vinci's "Last Supper". It was performed by Giacomo Raffaello at the beginning of the 19th century.
Construction of the church began in 1276 and lasted until about 1350. Its name comes from the order of minor brothers (minorities) to which he belonged. When the order of minor brothers was dissolved in the nineteenth century, the church became the property of the Italian minority, which is why it is also known as the "Italian national church".
The characteristic flat roof of the tower with a bell tower was received after its top was destroyed twice during the Austrian-Turkish wars. Currently, the church measures 54 meters at the highest point.
