Saint Elijah Church

The Chapel of St Elias stands near the ruins of medieval Dvigrad, in a landscape that recalls the once densely settled interior of Istria. Dating from the 15th century, it is listed in the Kanfanar municipal spatial plan as protected cultural property, reference Z-588. This small building makes a quiet and rewarding stop when exploring Dvigrad and the surrounding walking or cycling routes. It is best visited together with the abandoned town, since it lies by the historic site rather than in central Kanfanar. The chapel will particularly appeal to visitors interested in sacred heritage and Istrian medieval history.
