The most remarkable collection of chalices, artifacts, sculptures, paintings, and relics from Croatia and around the world. I wish our tour guide would’ve informed me how great this place was as I needed more time for it. Photographs not allowed in most areas of the exhibit. Highly recommend.

The Benedictine Monastery of Saint Maria is a lovely, working monastery. The nuns sell embroidery, home made liquor and food items. There is also an unbelievable collection of gold and silver religious artifacts many containing relics of Saints. No photography is allowed of the collection.

A small, simple Romanesque style church located just off the old Roman forum. In the four days that I was in Zadar it was never open, so I'm not sure if it's open to the public. There is a monastery and a small museum attached to the church. There is also a rather large parking lot located right next to it which detracts quite a bit from its old-world charm. Still, it is a nice backdrop for photos, and a picturesque landmark.

This is where you see the Silver and Gold Collection of Zadar - Religious Art Exhibition. It opens from 10-13 then 17-19 again every day. There’s an entry fee of 30 kunas for the exhibition. No photography in the exhibition hall. Don’t forget to check out the chapel at the end of corridor of the souvenir shop. Very serene and you get to see the old architecture and archaeological finds. Love the collection, not even religious myself. Just very much in awe with what art meant from 13th-17th century. Intriguing to see how the Catholics preserved body parts of saints. The curation is a bit curious - like separating the arms and feet of the same saint in different cases and areas. It’s also a great opportunity to compare how Madonna and Child were depict in different times by different artists. That’s very interesting too.
