VISOVAC MONASTERY
Franciscan monastery on an islet in the Krka River with an archaeological collection, a museum of sacred art and a historical library.
Situated on an islet in the Krka, in a green setting, this Franciscan monastery is the jewel in the park's crown. Tourists and pilgrims can reach it by boat from all directions, but the shortest crossing is from Brištane. The old part (church, cloister and outbuildings) was built in the 15th century. During the Ottoman invasions of the 17th century, the buildings were burnt down. The monastery's Renaissance and Baroque architecture is of great elegance. The monastery houses an archaeological collection, a museum of sacred art and a historical library.
