The subject of the study is the structural and iconographic-iconological analysis of the ground-plan of the pre-Romanesque Great-Moravian church in Devín Castle from the 9th century. The study also attempts to define the building stages that can be identified in the building development of the ground-plan. After a critical analysis, the building can be interpreted as an early-medieval adaptation of a defined model of the Dalmatian late antique church through Dalmatian pre-Romanesque architecture. As the source, the three late-antique churches in Dalmatia used also in the early-middle ages may be identified (Bilice, Pridraga, Sutivan). The ground-plan of the Devín church may be analysed by several construction plans based on different planimetric methods of construction, from which one can be analogically applied in the plans of the three Dalmatian triconchs. The Devín church was probably constructed using a Carolingian foot. The ground-plan of the Devín church was a result of one building project, but two ground-plan elements are obviously the separate building interventions. One intervention is presented by a middle transverse foundation stripe serving as the base of the chancel screen which was a part of the original building plan. The second intervention is presented by the additional intervention in the masonry of the northern apse which can be interpreted as a rebuilding of the northern apse caused by the static disorder in the second building stage.

The Chapel of St. Margaret of Antioch in Kopčany in western Slovakia is dated to the period from the 2nd half of the 9th century to the 1st half of the 10th century. The radiocarbon analysis of the wood residues from the cavity in masonry dates the building to the year 951 ± 60 (i.e. 891 – 1011). The completely preserved intact primary pre-Romanesque window openings were discovered in the north wall of the chapel. A specific feature of these window openings is the vaulting with the triangular keystone. The paper takes a closer look at this architectural element. The triangular keystone is to be regarded as a cultural import from the pre-Romanesque Carolingian architecture or from the area of its later occurrence in the West European early-Romanesque architecture, where it was used in the representative, especially sacral buildings as a structural detail with a decorative function and a special symbolic content.
