The Sacral Collection contains mostly sculptures of saints
but also a few mass vestments, candlesticks and other
items related to the Church in Križevci and its history.
The Collection is an integral part of the permanent display
and is placed in a room with an artistically treated ceiling,
which used to be the house chapel. The Collection contains
wooden sculptures of saints collected from local churches
and chapels. Special attention should be paid to two Gothic
statues of St John and Mary from the 15th century (probably
form the Holy Crucifix Church), to the statue of an unknown
female saint from the 18th century (the work of the Baroque
sculptor Aleksije Königer) and to the statue of the sitting
suffering Christ from the 18th century. The exhibition
area of the Museum houses a Torah (Jewish Holy Scriptures)
from the Križevci synagogue, dating from 1907. |
