Abstract

The subject of this paper is single-aisled medieval churches with rectilinear sanctuary between the Sava and the Drava
rivers. The origins of the type are discussed in the light of the recent literature, and models within the sphere of Pre-Romanesque
architecture both in wood and durable materials are proposed. The type can be followed from the Carolingian
times to the Renaissance, and represents a valuable ingredient of the cultural landscape of medieval Slavonia.
