Description

The Church of St. Andrew is situated on the Island of Mljet. It was probably built at the end of the 11th and the beginning of the 12th century and the Church from that period has not been preserved. Therefore the original appearance and ground plan of the Early Medieval Church are not known.
The Church was rebuilt in the Gothic period with the construction of a pointed vault and has a Early Medieval transena built-in the facade.
