Beautiful Castle of San Giorgio, I was struck by how it has been maintained until today it has remained intact and inside they made us a very special restaurant that I will go to try soon. Today it was all booked, but I will gladly return. I also recommend you to visit the village is very nice and characteristic and then you can taste very good typical things of the area. Stop for a Sunday dedicated to historical and artistic discovery and immersed in nature.

Abbiamo celebrato nella location del feudo di San Giorio il nostro matrimonio questo giugno 2022.è un ambiente molto suggestivo ed i nostri ospiti ne sono stati stregati. Consiglio vivamente sia per la particolarità dell ambiente , che per l empatia che si è creata con i gestori che sono stati molto disponibili e gentili nel consigliarci ,ascoltando ed esaudendo i nostri desideri e contribuendo a dare vita ad un ricevimento perfetto .

Very suggestive place. Inside a restaurant open from Wednesday to Sunday. Very kind and helpful staff. I recommend to go up on foot, leaving the car in the town below.

Marvelous. I was there for a wedding and I fell in love with it. The staff were very friendly and the place was impeccably preserved. Congratulations, I will definitely be back.

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.
