Description

The remains of the Church of St. Peter are situated at the Eastern side of the Island of Koločep. In historical documents from the 13th to the 17th century the Church is mentioned as ecclesia s. Petri sita in insula Calamote.
Today only the Northern wall has been preserved. The researchers believe that it was a single nave edifice built probably in the 11th century.
