In the central square of Koper, Tito Square, are the beautiful Cathedral of the Assumption of Mary. The Cathedral of the Assumption of Mary, built in the 15th century in the Gothic style, was later completed in the Renaissance style. In the 18th century, the interior was enriched in Baroque style. It houses many valuable works of art by Venetian masters, including Vittorio and Benedetto Carpaccio, Antonio Zanchi and others. In its treasury, the cathedral also holds a number of valuables, including a Byzantine ivory chest ( 9th to 12th centuries), a chalice and a large monstrance (card) from the 15th century, bust of St. Nazarias and the antiphonarium of Koper miniaturist Nazari (Nazario da Giustinopoli). On the facade of the cathedral lean the city tower. It was part of a Romanesque fortress that dates from the 15th century to 17th century. Later it has been transformed into a bell tower and today is a striking vantage point offering a magnificent view of the entire Koper Bay and the nearby hinterland.

It's not the most stunning looking cathedral from the outside but the interior is lovely. Although the whole setting with the bell tower and palace in the surrounding square makes for some great photos and a lovely place to walk and relax. The bell tower was €3 each and has 204 steps to the top. As usual you get a good view from the top. It is also suppose to be the oldest working bell tower in Slovenia.

This cathedral is one of the biggest churches in Slovenia. Almost completely white and quiet interior contrasts with the lively square in front of the church. Art lovers will find some precious art pieces (main and side altars) and they will certainly apreciate the breathtaking white facade. Visit of the bell tower is possible as well.

Ist schon eine Zeit lang her. Die Fassade der Kathedrale wirkt schlicht und einfach, wie bei den meisten Kirchen. Andeutung von Rundsäule mit Spitzbögen, über der Eingangstür mehrfach. Auf den Säulen je eine Statue, aber klein, schwer erkennbar. Über dem Eingang ein gemaltes Bild, bei den Spitzbögen links und rechts je ein kleines Wappen. Ganz links eine Büste in einem kleinen Spitzbogen mit einer Inschrift darunter. Oben mittig ein großes Rundfenster, daneben leicht angedeutete Rechtecksäulen. Als Besonderheit ganz recht, fast schon am Kirchturm eine Büste umrahmt von kleinen Säulen und unter einem Dach. Innen ist die Kathedrale sehr hell durch das viele weiß. Es fallen die massiven Rechtecksäulen auf. Für eine Kirche dieser Bedeutung wirkt sie eher schlicht. Sehr auffällig ist der rot-goldene Stuhl beim Hauptaltar und der runde blau-goldene Baldachin.

Katedrala Uznesenja Marijina, poznata i kao Katedrala sv. Nazarija, navodno je već šesta crkva na tom mjestu. Sadašnja crkva nastala je u 11. stoljeću, a od tada je više puta obnavljana. Donji je dio u gotičkom, a gornji u renesansnom stilu. U prvoj polovici 18. stoljeća katedrala je povećana. Danas se crkva smatra jednom od najvećih u Sloveniji. Duga je 70, a široka 25 metara. U crkvi možete razgledati umjetnine Vittorea Carpaccia i mramorni nadgrobni spomenik sv. Nazarija, zaštitnika grada i koparskog biskupa (iz 6. st.), koji je Mletačka Republika darovala gradu oko 1350. godine. Posebnost koparske katedrale je krstionica – Rotunda Majke božje Karmelske (nekada krstionica Sv. Ivana Krstitelja), koja je navodno nastala između 10. i 12. stoljeća te je odvojena od crkve.

La chiesa ha subito più volte pesanti interventi di modifica a partire dalla sua fondazione nel 1187. La facciata stessa presenta la parte inferiore in chiaro gotico veneziano, mentre quella superiore è del 1498, in stile molto più vicino al rinascimento. Il campanile è fatto anch'esso da sovrapposizioni storiche. L'interno, il cui aspetto attuale è barocco, cela il vero tesoro della chiesa, ovvero tre tele di Carpaccio (due di Vittore e una di Benedetto) ai lati del transetto e sopra gli stalli dell'altare. Il sarcofago di San Nazario risalente al 1300 non si può normalmente visitare in quanto nel coro dietro l'altare maggiore.
