St. Vitus church

Most of Gračišće is dominated by the large baroque parish church in the northern part where the Romanesque St. Vitus’ parish church was once located. The new church of St. Vitus, Modestus and Crescentia, built in the second half of the 18th century, at the time of the abolition of the diocese of Pićan and the transfer of jurisdiction to the diocese to Gradiška. Inside the church is a 15th century statue of St. Vitus holding a model of the city in his hand. A 30-metre high bell tower was also built near the church.
