Church of St Nicholas
The Church of St Nicholas is situated at the end of Prijeko Street. The original pre-Romanesque church was of the southern Dalmatian type of single-nave longitudinal church with a cupola. In the course of subsequent centuries, it underwent rebuilding, and its facade is of the late Renaissance. In its interior there is a pre-Romanesque interlaced motif relief ornamentation, as well as 13th-14th centuries painting of the Madonna, with 16th century interventions, and a 16th century painted wood relief of St. Andrew.
