Parish chruch of St.Cosmas and Damian

The Parish Church of SS. Cosmas and Damian stands in the square, close to the seaside.
An aisleless Gothic edifice that later gained elements of the Baroque style and has a rectangular presbytery and vestry. Its facade has a preserved Gothic portal in whose lunette; in a high relief stand the church titularies. It was built in the late Gothic style of the 15th century, while two spolia from the 8th century on the outer wall probably belong to the earlier phase of construction of the church. Beside the church stands a detached belfry mullioned at the top with two openings and ending in a pyramid. The interior of the church is furnished with five marble altars with wooden retables. The northern church wall holds a painting representing The Last Supper made in 1598 by the well-known painter from Zadar, Zorzi Ventura. The main altar too, holds a fine painting depicting Resurrected Christ with Saints, oil on canvas bearing all the features of the Venetian painter Leonardo Corone, painted around 1590. The walls of the vestry still bear traces of frescoes probably made by masters from Friuli in the 16th century.
