A unique ancient sight is the Great Temple, which is usually considered as a single historic ensemble with the nearby Temple of Neptune built almost 2,000 years ago. The old temples were built by stacking huge stones on top of each other. It's a wonder these buildings have been partially preserved until our days. The antique landmarks are located next to one of the city squares.
Fans of architectural attractions would be interested in visiting the House of Two Saints. Built at the turn of the 14th-15th centuries, it is located on Sveti Mauro Street. The beautiful Romanesque-style building owes its name to the fact that its facade is adorned by two skillfully executed figures.

According to some information, the sculptures were brought from abroad by the first owner of the house.
