Medieval Church of St. Martin in Dubrava near Vrbovec; Attempted Reconstruction of Its Layout
Zorislav Horvat
Abstract
In the Middle Ages there were two churches in Dubrava near Vrbovec: the parish Church of St. Margaret and the Church of St. Martin which served as a parish church. After they had been devastated by the Turks, the two churches were renovated. Yet, the walls of St. Martin’s Church are the only parts that have survived. In this paper, an attempt has been made to restore its layout by means of medieval design methodology of Roritzer, Lacher and others. The remains indicate that the church should have had a Late Gothic stellar vault. However, the actual vault was built as a variation of the Gothic cross vault.
