Chapel <strong>of</strong> St. Peter, Novo Mjesto<br />
<strong>The</strong> chapel was built in the late 13th century. In terms<br />
<strong>of</strong> style, the chapel is predominantly Romanesque with<br />
some Gothic elements. It was mentioned in the 1501 list<br />
<strong>of</strong> parish churches, though the parish was soon afterwards<br />
extinguished due to Turkish attacks. <strong>The</strong> chapel was likely<br />
a church <strong>of</strong> the court. This is a very reasonable assumption,<br />
given that the chapel had a gallery from which the<br />
aristocrats could partake in the service to God. Medieval<br />
frescos from the 14th century have been preserved in the<br />
church.<br />
