Statue of Gregory of Nin

Why it is worth your time

The statue depicts a medieval bishop who fought for worship in the Croatian language. Its polished toe betrays the thousands of hands that have touched it for luck. As an audio stop, it works best if you slow down here: look for the stonework, the surrounding streets and the way locals move around the landmark. It gives the route a clear story beat between the postcard sights and the smaller discoveries nearby.
