Abstract

The Church of St. Mark with additional structures and a monastery in Plehan (Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina) was designed in 1993. This essay presents the structures that have currently been built. The religious centre is being built as a replacement for an early 20th century church and monastery that were destroyed in the war in 1992. The project is based on local architectural heritage in its atmosphere, which is created through a modern interpretation of a single-storey Pannonian house from which the forceful, column-shaped volume of the church rises, lit with internal zenith lighting. The church has been constructed but not internally decorated, however it has been planned to outfit the church with the works of a number of modern artists.
