The Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist (Slovak: Katedrála svätého Jána Krstiteľa) in Prešov is a Greek Catholic cathedral, the seat of Archbishop of Prešov and the metropolitan church of Slovak Greek Catholic Province.Former eparchy bishops and martyrs Pavol Gojdič and Vasiľ Hopko[1] are buried here. In the temple there also is a copy of Shroud of Turin.
A hospital chapel was built on the site by the Augustinians in the late 1300s; ownership of the site changed hands several times and it became a monastery in the late 1600s.[2]
The building became a cathedral in 1818.[3] It was transferred to the Greek Catholic Church in 1999.
