Basilica of the Assumption of Mary, Pag
Zborna crkva Uznesenja Blažene Djevice Marije
A 15th-century church on the main square of Pag's old town, with a blend of Romanesque and Gothic façade and an exquisite rose window.
The Basilica of the Assumption of Mary is the core building of Pag's old town. Built in the 15th century, it has a three-aisled basilica plan, and its façade combines Romanesque and Gothic elements. The rose window takes its inspiration from Pag lace patterns. Inside are a wooden crucifix of Christ and an altarpiece. The church faces the main square and the Prince's Palace, making it the best photo spot in town, and it pairs well with a stroll through the old town. Please keep quiet during Mass and dress respectfully.
