Sveti Jure od Žestinja

A wonderful little historic church! Interesting! Right on the road, and surrounded by cypresses! It would be a little better to edit it! It looks like old man, not maintained. She has some charm! I hope he will be more careful in the future! worth the effort!

Interesting, peaceful

I am particularly pleased to sign this place with a small old Croatian church. Initially, the church was called Sveti Juraj in Miran, and later from the 13th century it was called Sv. Juraj of Žestinje in the village where she was located. It is known that it was raised by some Barbanići. It is assumed that the cemetery on which the church was built dates from the 9th century. The church was built surrounded by an old Croatian cemetery, which was developed at the time of construction at the turn of the 11th to 12th centuries. The stećak tombstones are visible to the east. At the end of the Middle Ages, probably in the 15th century, this church was replaced by a new Gothic-style church, retaining the overhang from the previous church. The lintel is from the early Romanesque period, 11/12. century. Probably there was someone in that area in ancient times ancient economic estate. In 1583 by the decision of Pope Gregory XIII. with her possessions she is associated with the Table Capitol in Trogir. Recently, the settlement of Rudine was built near the church and a mass was celebrated there every Sunday, until the new church of St. Leopold Bogdan Mandic was built. The church is awaiting professional renovation and preliminary detailed construction and construction analysis. Also its environment archaeological excavation. The church is utterly neglected to the shame of secular and religious authority. She is in danger of collapsing.
