Description
The Church of Christ the Saviour is situated in the old town of Ulcinj and was found beneath the Romanesque Church of St. Mary (Sveta Marija). The Church of St. Mary itself was transformed into a mosque (cf. the remnants of a minaret at its South-Western corner) and is now the Archaeological Museum in Ulcinj. The Church of Christ the Saviour was a single nave edifice, perhaps with a dome (as some researchers have suggested). Next to the Southern wall a ciborium was found, which could have belonged to another church.
