Archaeologists managed to discover fragments of a triumphal arch and street paving, as well as a 14-meter pillar, which has miraculously survived since the Roman Empire. Other sights of the city worth mentioning include St. Donat Church. This is a beautiful building made in the Byzantine style, which was built back in the 9th century. According to one theory a part of an ancient Roman building was used as a foundation of the church. A part of the church was converted into a museum which exhibits a collection of metal items made by best masters of Dalmatia. The church of St. Mary is also an important architectural object. The church was built in the 11th century. The bell tower is the only structure that has survived from the very first building. All other elements of the church were reconstructed several times and changed their shape significantly during centuries.
