ŽUPNA CRKVA SV. ANTUNA PADOVANSKOG U FUŽINAMA – PRIMJER ARHITEKTURE KLASICIZMA U GORSKOM KOTARU

The Church of St. Anthony of Padua in Fužine is a single-nave church building with a prominent bell tower on the front façade and a rectangular vestry situated at the back of the building and in symmetry with the church nave. Its principal architectural feature is a consistent sequence of domed arched ceilings executed in brick over the two bays of the nave and over the rectangular shrine, which has not been separately articulated in the floorplan within the perimeter of the building. Though the erection of this church had commenced towards the end of the first decade of the 19th century, building was terminated and the church left in foundations for a long period of time. It was finally completed in 1833. Together with the parish church of Delnice, with which it shares the same elements of style, the Church of St. Anthony of Padua in Fužine is not only the most important, but also the best-preserved example of the Classicist period in the sacral architecture of Gorski kotar. Same as in the Delnice example, the prominent bell tower on the front façade may be interpreted as a relic of the local building tradition. This church belongs to typologically diverse architectural realisations created in the final phase of the yearlong leadership of the Senj and the Modruš/Krbava Dioceses by Bishop Ivan Krstitelj Ježić. Its erection and shaping should be looked at both in the context of the ambitions of the local community and the urban development of Fužine, and in the context of a specific pluralism of influences, which was taking place on the architecture of Fužine as a transit travel station. The influences were gradually coming in from Karlovac and Ogulin as the nearby continental cultural centres, as well as – increasingly – from several towns of the Hungarian Littoral, such as Bakar, Kraljevica, and particularly Rijeka as a regional economic and cultural centre of growing importance. Well- preserved architectural structures, combined with a comparative art- historical analysis and an analysis of archival sources, have enabled reaching wider-applicable conclusions regarding the church building and decorating tradition in Gorski kotar.
