Cathedral of St Nicholas
(Stolna Cerkev Sv Nikolaja; Kapiteljska ulica)
Perched above the Old Town, this Gothic
cathedral is Novo Mesto's most important historical monument. It has a 15th-century
vaulted (and very floral) presbytery and crypt, wall frescoes, a belfry that had once been a
medieval defence tower, and an altar painting of the church's eponymous saint supposedly
painted by the Venetian master Jacopo Tintoretto (1518-94).
If the church is locked, you'll find the key at the
Provost's House
