Something for absolutely everyone at any budget. Wonderful and unique pieces by talented creators. English speaking helpful service. I don't usually leave reviews but I just opened my bag and found the most beautifully wrapped packaging. I continued shopping as she was wrapping up my souvenirs to bring to friends, which I didn't open the bag until I got home. One was a lovely wedding gift, look at the excellent job she did. Five stars! I can happily give the gift and the bride will know it was handmade in France

Fascinating place to visit. A wide variety of unique items at very reasonable prices. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend a visit and will be back very soon.

What a wonderful place, loath to call it a shop as its really an artisans gallery. Crammed with unusual pieces, not overpriced, you get what you pay for here. Discovered they are on line, great gift ideas and ship internationally

Old house with interesting facade. Excellent souvenir shop.

Church of St Donatus

The Church of St Donatus name refers to Donatus of Zadar, who began construction on this church in the 9th century and ended it on the northeastern part of the Roman forum. It is the largest Pre-Romanesque building in Croatia.

The beginning of the building of the church was placed to the second half of the 8th century, and it is supposed to have been completed in the 9th century. The Zadar bishop and diplomat Donat (8th and 9th centuries) is credited with the building of the church. He led the representations of the Dalmatian cities to Constantinople and Charles the Great, which is why this church bears slight resemblance to Charlemagne's court chapels, especially the one in Aachen, and also to the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna. It belongs to the Pre-Romanesque architectural period.

The circular church, formerly domed, is 27 m high and is characterised by simplicity and technical primitivism.
