Beautiful Liturgy on Sept 4 (old calendar). At least 300 in attendance. Outstanding choir!! I was transported- thanks be to God, who gives all good things!!

Sad to see so many beautiful places under restoration in Zagreb. This church's integrity is being preserved by a large amount of scaffolding both outside and inside. It is however still worth visiting for the beautiful interior murals. Alas they bear testament to the impact of the earthquakes back in 2020. Hopefully this church will be restored to it's full glory with the next two years.

Very nice church full of history, sadly one of the last orthodox ones that are opened.

Quiet and beautiful place. The interior is beautiful and the whole ambience is really relaxing and calm for a person.

One of the most beautiful churches that I visited while in Zagreb. Once you walk through the simple entrance you walk inside the Bible. The walls and ceilings show you all about the life of Jesus and more.

Kakesbeck Castle

Kakesbeck is one of the largest medieval fortifications in Münsterland and the oldest castle in Lüdinghausen. The imposingly grown complex originated in 1120 as a motte, a small hilltop tower castle. After numerous changes of ownership, the castle was extended onto two islands, but it was not until the 14th century that it underwent significant alterations and extensions under the von Oer family. The estate experienced its heyday in the middle of the 18th century, when it covered an area of almost one square kilometre and consisted of five further outer castles in addition to the core castle, which were secured by ramparts and moats.

The well-maintained condition of the castle today is thanks to the late Wilfried Grewing, the former lord of the castle. The foundation named after him has been particularly committed to preserving the property since 2020.
