Residence of Bukovinian and Dalmatian Metropolitans
Brief Description
The Residence of Bukovinian and Dalmatian Metropolitans represents a masterful synergy of architectural styles built by Czech architect Josef Hlavka from 1864 to 1882. The property, an outstanding example of 19th-century historicist architecture, also includes a seminary and monastery and is dominated by the domed, cruciform Seminary Church with a garden and park. The complex expresses architectural and cultural influences from the Byzantine period onward and embodies the powerful presence of the Orthodox Church during Habsburg rule, reflecting the Austro-Hungarian Empire policy of religious tolerance.

Résidence des métropolites de Bucovine et de Dalmatie
La résidence des métropolites de Bucovine et de Dalmatie (Ukraine) représente une synergie magistrale de styles architecturaux créée par l'architecte tchèque Josef Hlavka entre 1864 et 1882. Exemple remarquable de l'architecture historiciste du XIXe siècle, le site comprend également un séminaire et un monastère dominé par une église cruciforme à coupoles du séminaire, avec un jardin et un parc. L'ensemble représente des influences architecturales et culturelles de la période byzantine et incarne le rôle puissant joué par l'Eglise orthodoxe lors du règne des Habsbourg, tout en reflétant la politique de tolérance religieuse de l'empire austro-hongrois.
