Jettenbach Castle was first mentioned in the mid-12th century when it was probably a wooden fort. The castle chapel originates from 1356. The castle was replaced by a stone castle in 1511 and expanded in 1622. The other wing was added in the late 17th century. The new brewery was constructed in 1726.
Jettenbach was badly damaged by fire in 1855. It was rebuilt in next two years to the current appearance.

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.
