St. Dominic Monastery, Trogir

The Monastery of Saint Dominic and its affiliated church stand as among the most significant and cherished monuments in the historic town of Trogir. Dedicated to Saint Dominic, its origins can be traced back to 1579 AD when Cardinal Agostino Valier, during his visit to Dalmatia, undertook the construction of this magnificent place of worship.

Originally, the church consisted of six altars, each with its own unique dedication. Among these altars, one was devoted to Saint Dominic, while others honored figures such as Mary Magdalene, Our Lady of Sorrows, the Holy Prophet, Saint Vinco Versky, and Saint Catherine of Alexandria. These dedications reflect the rich tapestry of saints and religious figures venerated within the church's hallowed walls.

The interior of the church is a true marvel, characterized by its artistic treasures. The walls are adorned with a group of paintings and drawings that tell stories of faith and devotion. Additionally, the church's ceilings and interior surfaces are adorned with ornate decorations and inscriptions, creating an atmosphere of profound spirituality and reverence.
