Church of St. Euphemia
church · RovinjThe Church of St. Euphemia stands on the hilltop of Rovinj's old town and was completed in 1736 as a three-aisled Baroque church on the site of older churches. Behind an altar lies the late-antique sarcophagus with the relics of St. Euphemia; the bell tower of 1654–1680, about 60 metres high and modelled on St Mark's in Venice, carries a statue of the saint as a weather vane.
