The Residence of Bukovinian and Dalmatian Metropolitans is a red brick complex in the city of Chernivtsi, in south-western Ukraine. It was built for the Orthodox metropolitan bishop, its buildings now belong to Chernivtsi University, and it became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2011. The Czech architect Josef Hlavka designed it, and it was built between 1864 and 1882, when the region belonged to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Its style mixes Byzantine, Romanesque and Gothic elements with decoration in coloured brick and tile. It has three buildings around a courtyard and a large park. From outside you see red brick buildings with small towers and roofs of coloured tiles in geometric patterns, and a red gateway with arches and small domes. A paved courtyard lined with cypresses lies before the main building. Inside are decorated halls, including the Red Hall with its red walls and chairs. It is in central Chernivtsi and is usually visited on tours. The UK Foreign Office advises against all but essential travel to the Chernivtsi region, and opening can change at short notice, so read the current advice before you plan.
