| Blagaj, Church of Sts. Cosmas and Damian | Place | The Church of Sts. Cosmas and Damian is situated in Blagaj in Zachlumia, near the city of Mostar. It was built by Župan Djordje, in the time of Stefan Nemanja, as was written on the dedicatory inscription. The Church has been demolished and torn down but the remains of other Churches built in the Ponikve region (Church of St. George in Sparagovići and Church of Sts. Cosmas and Damian in Metohija), in the late 12th century, we can reconstruct how this edifice looked like. It was a single nave edifice with three bays and an apse which consists of three niches in the Eastern wall (the one in the middle was rectangular on the outside). | ||
| Metohija, Church of Sts. Cosma and Damian (St. Tudor; Sts. Philip and Jacob) | Place | The Church of Sts. Cosma and Damian (also know as the Church of St. Tudor and Sts. Philip and Jakob) is situated in Metohija (Prve Ponikve), near Ston. Today, the Church is dedicated to St. Philip and Jacob, a dedication first mentioned in the 16th century. Its a single nave building divided by lesenes into two bays. Bays are vaulted with cross-domed vaults. On the Eastern end of the Church were three niches. Today the central niche (which was the deepest and which ends in apse) has been walled up. Shallow apse is semicircular on the inside and rectangular on the outside. The Western façade is not known due to the addition of a more recent corpus on that side (probably in the 16th century when its dedication was changed). | ||
| Ponikve, Church of St. George in Sparagovići | Place | The Church of St. George (Sv. Juraj) is situated at the Ponikve region, in Sparagovići, on the Island of Pelješac, in the so-called Crna gora. In the 1st or the 2nd century a first building was erected, following a pre-Romanesque building from the 12th or the 13th century. Its a single nave vaulted building with an apse which has three semicircular niches in the inside and is rectangular on the outside. Lesenes are dividing the interior into three bays. On its Western side it has a bell-tower. Devastated masonry tombs filled with earth and stones were found at the height of the existing church threshold. The Church was renewed in 1987. | ||
| 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. |
