St. George's Parish Church

Best time to visit

Jutarnji sati su idealni jer je manje posjetilaca i svjetlost naglašava arhitektonske detalje unutrašnjosti. Ljeti je bolje doći ranije radi izbjegavanja gužve.

Budget tips

Ulaz u crkvu je često besplatan ili uz malu donaciju, a panoramski pogled sa zvonika se plaća simbolično 2 eura. Kombinovane ulaznice za gradske znamenitosti ponekad donose uštede.

About

Quick facts: The church has a 46-meter-high bell tower offering panoramic views of the city and the Adriatic Sea. Inside, a large baroque altarpiece dedicated to Saint George, the patron saint of the village, is preserved.

Highlights: What's special is that from the belfry you can enjoy views of all four cardinal directions and see the entire Piran Riviera. Inside the church, there is a wooden sculpture of Saint George slaying the dragon, intricately carved in the late 15th century.

Insider tips

  • Obucite udobne cipele jer je uspon do tornja na strmim kamenim stepenicama.
  • Najbolje fotografije su sa vrha tornja rano ujutru kada je manje ljudi i ima mekše svjetlo.
  • Nemojte propustiti detaljan pogled na barkarske vene i detalje oltara unutar crkve.
  • Posjetite crkvu prije vikenda ako želite izbjeći gužve zbog lokalne mise.
