The Church of Saint Luke, built in 1195, is one of the oldest surviving buildings in Kotor and a rare example of Romanesque-Byzantine architecture. It stands in the square of the same name in the northern part of the old town. For centuries it was shared between Catholic and Orthodox congregations — an unusual arrangement that reflects the mixed character of medieval Kotor.
The interior is plain but atmospheric; original frescoes visible in places on the walls are fragments of something that must have been remarkable. Usually open during daylight hours with no entrance fee, making it a worthwhile stop as you wander the old town's maze of lanes.
