Abstract
The article discusses church architecture in relation to the time when they were built in the 17th and 18th centuries, as well as their locations in the Croatian territory of the Northern Adriatic Coast under Venetian and Austrian rule.
The churches are categorized according to type, and the relation between their types and style - Renaissance or Baroque - is made clear. The paper also notes that individual types are distributed differently according to the political divisions of the Northern Adriatic Coast. It is argued that churches with Baroque characteristics were not built before the 1730s.
Examining the incidence of certain church types, the author finds direct models in Venetian and Central European architectural tradition, as well as in cathedral churches from the territory encompassed in this article.
