The Parish Church of Saint Catherine

The building, in its present form, was built in 1751, when it became the spiritual centre of Lendava’s Roman Catholic residents. The baroque belfry and main altar are of important artistic value. The frescoes that embellished the interior were lost during numerous restorations. In the church square there are three statues. The first one is a statue of St. Florian, the patron saint of Lendava, the second is a statue of St. Stephen, the first Hungarian king (Stephen I. of Hungary), and the third, is a statue of Anton Martin Slomšek, the former bishop of Maribor.
