The Church of St. Nicholas was built around 1100 and is situated in Prahuljama, near Nin.
It is a central building with four arms arranged around a central circular core, three of which form the apse, and the fourth is the entrance arm. Above the central space rises a dome in a tambour with an cross-ribbed vault.
Seven kings were coronated in this building.
