Prostran između polja pšenice i rijeke Drave, bogat društvenim i kulturnim sadržajima, prozračan i okružen prirodnim ljepotama - grad po mjeri. Četvrti je najveći grad u Hrvatskoj sa 108.048 stanovnika. Najveći je grad i gospodarsko i kulturno središte istočnohrvatske regije Slavonije, kao i upravno središte Osječko-baranjske županije. Osijek se nalazi na desnoj obali rijeke Drave.Od vremena prapovijesti, područje Panonske nizine civilizacijski je "hotspot". Tijekom antike naseljavaju ga Rimljani, a potom u srednjem vijeku Slaveni i Ugri (Mađari). Osvojivši Slavoniju i velik dio Ugarske, sredinom 16. stoljeća Osmanlije ovdje grade osmo svjetsko čudo – drveni Sulejmanov most koji je iz Osijeka, preko sedam kilometara močvara, vodio do središta Baranje, Darde. Nakon što su krajem 17. stoljeća Osmanlije potisnuli Austrijanci (usput spalivši most) počinje nova faza osječkog graditeljskog "booma". Utvrđeni, središnji dio grada koji se u to vrijeme sastojao od tri odvojena naselja, proglašen je vojnim središtem. Iz močvare će do 1722. niknuti jedna od najvećih tvrđava u Hrvatskoj, poznata i kao Tvrđa.

A visit to the church was relaxing and we had the oppotunity of witnessing the wonderful monument and the beautiful architectural structure that they hold.
