Basilica of Our Mother of Mercy

The Basilica of Our Mother of Mercy is a Roman Catholic minor basilica in Maribor, Slovenia, maintained by the Franciscan order. Built around 1900 in the Romanesque Revival style, its rounded arches and solid masonry reflect both the historicist architectural taste of the period and the Marian devotion central to Franciscan spirituality. Designated a Slovenian cultural monument of local significance, it represents a quiet example of early-20th-century religious architecture. For visitors, the basilica offers a contemplative stop away from Maribor's more visited old town.
