Fratarska kuća

 

U starom dijelu grada Metkovića, poznatom kao Krnjesavac, nalazi se tzv. fratarska kuća koja je od početka 20. stoljeća dom metkovskih župnika i kapelana prilikom službovanja u župi sv. Ilije. Ime dolazi od metkovskog naziva za svećenika koji pripada franjevačkom redu. Radi se višekatnoj građevini u kojoj se miješaju elementi tradicijske arhitekture, jednostavno oblikovanje s elementima tadašnjih stilova, hitoricizma i secesije, ponajprije na ukrasu pročelja i ograde.

Friars’ House

 

In the old part of Metković, known as Krnjesavac, there is the so-called Friars’ house that from the start of the 20th century has been the home of the parish priests of Metković and the chaplains during their performing the service in the St. Elijah church. The name is coming from the Metković name for the priest belonging to the Franciscan order. This is a structure with several floors, in which the elements of the traditional architecture are mixing with the simple shaping of the elements of the styles of the time, historicism and secession, primarily on the ornaments of the front and the fence.
