Raske fakta: Ova crkva iz 18. veka krije kolekciju slika venecijanskih majstora koje su preživele dva svetska rata. Njen zvonik visok 37 metara služi i danas kao orijentir ribarima koji se vraćaju u luku.
Høydepunkter: Iza oltara se nalazi drvena polihromna skulptura Bogorodice iz 15. veka koja je jedina preživela požar koji je skoro uništio stariju crkvu na istom mestu. Kad sunce popodne padne kroz rozetu, na podu se stvori šareni svetlosni mozaik koji traje samo dvadesetak minuta.
Insidertips
- Sit in the third bench on the left side; from there you get the best angle of the altarpiece.
- Photograph the rose window from the inside between 4:15 and 4:35 PM when the sun is in the right position.
- Pay attention to the plaque to the right of the entrance; it lists the names of 43 fishermen who died at sea.
- Skip the crowds in season by coming before 11 AM or after 5 PM.
