Crkva Gospe od Mora

Our Lady of the Sea belongs to the Pula of the great naval port, with its position on Sveti Polikarp linking it to the former naval quarter. Completed in 1898, the church was built in alternating bands of pale and reddish stone, making it instantly recognisable beyond the familiar Arena-and-Forum circuit. Columns shaped like a tied knot draw attention at the entrance, while the separate bell tower is crowned by an angel. The three-aisled interior was created for the navy's religious needs and now serves a parish church. For a wider historical context, connect this visit with the naval buildings and cemetery in southern Pula.
