St. Nicholas Church, Prahulje field near Nin.


The St. Nicolas’ Church is the only preserved example of Romanesque architecture with the central ground-plan and the cross-ribbed vault. The seven Croatian kings were crowned in Nin. On that occasion the crowned ruler would arrive riding with his entourage to the church of St. Nicolas where he introduced himself the assembled peoples. The king would point with his pulled out sword to the four sides of the World.
