Church and monastery of St. Claire

The Church and Convent of St Clare stand on the eastern side of central Split, outside the innermost area of Diocletian's Palace. The complex is listed in Croatia's heritage register as protected sacred architecture. Because this is a religious community rather than a museum attraction, the experience differs from a conventional sightseeing visit: viewing the exterior and its urban setting is most appropriate, with due respect for the convent's function and privacy. The location fits easily into a walk between the historic core, the market area and eastern neighbourhoods. It is useful for visitors who want a broader view of Split's religious heritage beyond the cathedral and the better-known Marjan chapels.
