Description
The Church of St. Mary in Nin was possibly built in the 6th century and then refurbished in Pre-Romanesque style in the 11th century. It was demolished in the year 1646 in order to provide building material for the renovation of the city fortifications.
It was a three nave edifice with a semicircular apse on the inside and pentagonal on the outside. It seems that the Church floor was covered with mosaics. Remains of stone Church furnishing has been found.
