St. James’ Cathedral Interpretation Center

The St. James’ Cathedral Interpretation Center “Civitas Sacra - Sveti grad” occupies the Galbiani Palace in the old town of Šibenik. Its permanent exhibition spans three floors and includes, among other things, objects from the rich historical, ecclesiastical, and cultural heritage of the Šibenik region.

The Galbiani Palace houses a gallery, a multimedia hall, a gift shop, and a restaurant with a terrace. The permanent exhibition is enriched with interactive content that presents the history of Šibenik’s cathedral in an innovative way.

Beyond the modern interpretation methods already seen in presentation centers, we are especially proud of the baptistery exhibit. Through a specially built mechanism, activating the water triggers a mapped ceiling projection that draws a dynamic image of an angel. In the same way, we created the exhibit that carves names into a stone monolith and scans faces in stone.

It is precisely our clients’ complex demands that inspire us to create extraordinary solutions. On this project, our creative and technical team turned challenging specifications into a fascinating multifunctional exhibit, seamlessly combining mechanics, robotics, and advanced software.
