| Ston, Church of St. John (St. Ivan) | Place | The Church of St. John (some researchers point to Saint John the Baptist while others indicate St. John the Evangelist) was built on the foundations of an Ealry Christian building probably from the 6th century. The Church is a single nave edifice with an elongated rectangular ground plan with a wide semicircular apse on the East side. The interior of the side walls is divided by four lesenes, which are, interconnected and formed, on each wall, five niches vaulted with a semicircular lintel. | ||
| Ston, Church of St. Martin | Place | The Church of St. Martin is located on the northern slope of the hill Humac and today lies in ruins. Most researchers agree that it was probably built in the beginning of the 12th century, even though earlier date is also possible. Its a single nave building divided with two lesenes into three bays. It has a semicircular apse on the inside and a rectangular on the outside. Today only Southern wall remains. Restoration works on the church, with a minor archaeological intervention, were undertaken in 1964 - 1965 by the Institute for the Protection of Cultural Monuments from Dubrovnik. | ||
| Ston, Church of St. Stephen (Sv. Stjepan) | Place | The Church of St. Stephen is situated East of Gorica (between Lužine and Gorica). It was built on the remains of a Late Antique building from the 6th century, probably between the 10th and 11th century. Being on a wetland area archaeological research has been hampered and today only the grounds remain. It is a single nave edifice with a semicircular apse on its Eastern end. A sintronon from the first phase of the building has remained. The early medieval church was built in the sanctuary of the early Christian basilica, and the remains of its North and West walls have been preserved. On its Northern wall remains of lesenes can still be seen and they indicate that the building was divided into three bays. |
