It is located at the foot of a hill on which are the remains of an early Byzantine fortress. Emperor Constantine Porphyrogenitus mentions Vrgada as the only inhabited island in the Zadar area. Therefore, historians assume that this church was used by a Byzantine military fortress. Its a single nave edifice with a semicircular apse, built probably in the mid-11th century.
