The church was the pride of Banja Luka after it was built between 1925 and 1929 but was blown up by the Croatian 'Ustashi' puppet government of the Nazis in 1941 during their brutal occupation.
After the war a new church in the same style was constructed but smaller and away from the city centre. But now it is being rebuilt in its original spot and will soon take pride of place in the hearts and minds of the locals once more.
