Sveti Sveti Petâr & Pavel Church

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:31:55

This pretty pink church, a little further along from the Archaeological Museum, was built in the 1860s and is adorned with bright modern murals. It houses relics of a 4th-century local saint, Dasius, which were stolen by medieval crusaders and were only returned to the church by the Pope in 2001, after spending several centuries in Italy.
