Description
The Church of St. Cecilia was built before 1088, probably around 1060. It is probably to be identified with the church in front of which King Dmitar Zvonimir (reigned 1076-1089) was murdered. It fell to ruins at an unknown date.
It was a three-nave edifice with three apses, and was probably vaulted. On the Western side was a narthex and a bell-tower and together they formed a westwerk. On the Southern side was a chapel.
