The Zlarin legend

30 May 2023
The highest point of the Klepac Island is 169 meters high and the church of Mary from Rašelj was to be built there. Things however did not go to plan - a group of people found a piece of wood with the image of the Madonna in Zlarin (the place of today’s church) and they took it up to Klepac to the place of the planned church. The next morning, that same wooden image of the Madonna appeared in Zlarin where it was found, and from there it was decided that that would be the home of the church in Zlarin.
