Franciscan Church and Monastery of St. Roch, Virovitica

Late Baroque (1746–1752) Religious, Baroque four-winged monastery ; Late Baroque nave church with ellipsoidal side chapels Master builders: Giovanni Bérta (known work c. 1770), Giulio Zérone (known work c. 1770) ; sculptors: Josip Holzinger (1735–797), Stjepan Severin (c. 1700–1760) ; painters: Josef Anton Cusetti (1750–1793), Damian Bittner (1733–1768) ; cabinetmaker: Timotej Schwab (known works c. 1770) The Franciscan Church of St. Roch in Virovitica relates to Early Baroque, Central European hall churches with wall columns and side chapels but in its rounded chapels, it also demonstrates the introduction of Late Baroque spatial dynamics. In 1745, the architect Josef Hueber of Graz was engaged in renovations to Batthyhány Palace chapel in Ludbreg, where he appropriately centralised the longitudinal chapel in the Late Baroque manner. In light of this, therefore, it is fair to assume that he influenced the appearance of St. Rochus whose façade articulation is similar to some other Hueber churches in Styria.
