In 1477, a ten-year contract with Nikola Firentinac was signed and the third phase of the cathedral`s construction began. Firentinac was the greatest artistic master in Dalmatia in the second half of the 15th century. He applied the same construction system as before and by the assembling of great stone slabs, the main apses were vaulted.
