Euphrasius' Basilica - UNESCO World Heritage

Euphrasius' Basilica is the most valuable cultural monument in Poreč. It was built on the remains of an earlier church in the first half of the 6th century during the period of Bishop Euphrasius, whose name it bears. Visitors' tours are possible everyday except during religious rituals. It is possible to climb up to the steeple and view Poreč and its surroundings.

The entire complex of Euphrasiana included the magnificent three-nave church, baptistery, atrium and the former Bishop’s Palace. It is one of the best examples of early Byzantine art on the Mediterranean, and due to its exceptional value it has been entered on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1997.
