The Visovac Monastery was founded in the 14th century by Dominican monks. Taken over by the Franciscan a century later, the monastery was enlarged. Destructed and abandoned in the 17th century, the monastery is repaired in the 18th and 20th centuries. Located on the beautiful island of Visovac in the Krka National Park, the monastery keeps a collection of books, works of art and other important documents.
Krka Monastery is the most important Serbian Orthodox monastery in Croatia. It is a protected monument that is part of the Krka National Park.
St. James Cathedral in Šibenik was built in three phases from 1431 to 1536. The building mixes Gothic architecture, especially Tuscan Gothic, with Renaissance features, such as the dome, making it one of the most interesting buildings in Croatia from this period. Due to its outstanding features, the cathedral was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2000.
The Serbian Orthodox Church of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin in Knin was built in the 18th century. The church has a neo-Byzantine style. The building had its current look since 1971.
