The neo-Gothic Co-cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul, situated next to the main town square, is a symbol of Osijek and the second-tallest church in Croatia. It was built from 1894 to 1898 according to the designs of architect Franz Langenberg and at the initiative of Bishop Josip Juraj Strossmayer – a famous Croatian patron and native of Osijek. About three and a half million red bricks were used in its construction, and the interior is decorated with frescoes by Mirko Rački, who painted the church between 1938 and 1942. Due to its monumentality and abundance of neo-Gothic details, the co-cathedral is a must-see for every visitor and a permanent part of the outline of the Osijek skyline.
