Abstract
The paper deals with two bell-towers: the first one, the bell-tower of the Church of Our Lady of Health in Split, was commonly attributed to Vicko Andrić. However, the author argues that Andrić was only reconstructing the existing, the baroque style one, the construction of which had started in 1759. On the other hand, in the other one, the bell-tower of the parish church in Kaštel Novi, the author perceives its accurately conceived architectural structure and attributes it to Vicko Andrić. In this masterpiece of neo-classicist architecture, Andrić achieved the effect of genuine monumentality, alongside with the declarative asceticism regarding details, remaining faithful to the stylistic expression.
