The President of the Republic Zoran Milanovi\u0107 today visited the Sacral Museum of the Greek Catholic Seminary in Zagreb and the Greek Catholic Co-cathedral of Saints Cyril and Methodius in \u0106irilometodska Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the expert guidance of museum curator Dra\u017een Zeti\u0107, President Milanovi\u0107 toured the exhibition, viewing gospel books, icons, antimensions (altar cloths), liturgical vestments, Byzantine coins, other sacred objects, and numerous valuable items that have been preserved and cared for by Greek Catholic clergy and seminarians for more than three centuries. The exhibition also features the Virgin Mary of \u017dumberak, a sacred icon brought by the Uskoks approximately 530 years ago, when they began to settle permanently in the \u017dumberak Mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sacral Museum of the Greek Catholic Seminary is a registered institution, and its collection of icons has been protected as a cultural asset of the Republic of Croatia since 2008. The museum was solemnly blessed and opened in 2021 by Bishop of Kri\u017eevci Msgr. Milan Stipi\u0107, in the presence of then Apostolic Nuncio to Croatia Giorgio Lingua, on the occasion of the 340th<\/sup> anniversary of the Greek Catholic Seminary in Zagreb, and under the leadership of then rector and parish priest Fr. Danijel Vrane\u0161i\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the visit to the museum, President Milanovi\u0107 toured the Greek Catholic Co-cathedral of Saints Cyril and Methodius, which this year marks the 345th<\/sup> anniversary of its founding, and met with Bishop of Kri\u017eevci Msgr. Milan Stipi\u0107. The meeting was also attended by the Chancellor of the Kri\u017eevci Eparchy Fr. Livije Marijan and the Rector of the Greek Catholic Seminary of the Kri\u017eevci Eparchy Fr. Nenad Kraja\u010di\u0107. President Milanovi\u0107 was accompanied by Jadranka \u017darkovi\u0107, the President\u2019s Adviser for Education, Neven Pelicari\u0107, the President\u2019s Adviser for Foreign and European Policy, and Zdravko Zima, the President\u2019s Special Adviser for Culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
