Some pre-Romanesque churches from the 9th century in the middle Danube region probably have their origins in the architecture of the Adriatic region. The aim of the first part of the article is to contribute to find the origin of the basilica on Receskut Island (Hungary) and identify the origin and form of the basilica on Bratislava Castle (Slovakia), and thereby help to specify their dating. The aim of the second part is an attempt to reconstruct the building development and design of the church No. 10 in Mikulčice (Moravia) and answer the question of the origin of this church.

The aim of this work is to identify the provenance of the pre-Romanesque church no. IX (the so-called four-chevet rotunda) in Mikulčice from the 2nd half of the 9th century and determine its probable function. Since the church no. IX is a tetraconch inscribed into the shell of a rotunda, it is necessary to compare it with the tetraconchs from the 4th to 11th century. The tetraconchs occur in this period mainly in the area of the Byzantine architecture and in the areas influenced by the Byzantine architecture. The ground plan of the church no. IX resembles most closely some Armenian tetraconchs inscribed into a rotunda from the 7th to the 11th century. The Byzantine mission to Moravia from 863 can be identified as the most likely mediator of transmission of the idea of the tetraconch inscribed into a rotunda from the eastern Black-Sea area into the Great-Moravian environment. According to the archaeological context, the church no. IX fulfilled only two specific functions – the function of the cemetery chapel and the function of the baptistery.

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.
