Plaošnik (St. Clement & Panteleimon)
Плаошник
One of the cradles of Slavic writing and culture, where St. Clement founded the first Slavic university in 893; Roman mosaics survive around the church
The present-day Church of St. Clement and St. Panteleimon was rebuilt in Byzantine style on the original site in 2002, and houses the tomb of St. Clement. The surrounding archaeological area preserves exquisite floor mosaics from an early Christian basilica of the 5th century. Tickets cost about 100 denars. It lies on the hillside between the fortress and Kaneo, making it easy to link on a walking route: Fortress – Plaošnik – Kaneo.
