Church of St. John the Baptist
Zaprešić
The Parish Church of St. Peter the Apostle changed immediately after the construction of the Church of St. John the Baptist began during the parish priest mr. Ivan Bošnjak in 1992. On the feast day of St. John the Baptist, on June 24, 1993, the building was blessed by the cardinal Franjo Kuharić. The consecrated stone was inserted in the foundation of the new Church of St. John the Baptist, originating from the unfortunate event when Alojzije Stepinac was attacked in Zaprešić. The large and beautiful Church of St. John the Baptist is octagonal, 1,100 m2 large and the 800 m2 crypt was designed by Dubravka Brkić from Zagreb.
