Description
The Church of St. Peter in Omiš is mentioned in the period from 1074 to 1090 in the Codex Diplomaticus and, thus, was built before that, most probably between 1050 and 1070.
Its a single-nave edifice with a dome and an apse on its Eastern end, similar in plan to the Church of St. Michael in Ston and St. John the Baptist in Podace, near Zaostrog. There are also similarities with the Church of St. George in Ribnica (Podgorica).
The outer walls are segmented by lesenes. Spoliae, probably from the 6th century building that once stood here, have been used.
