Highlights

Do you know who was Saint Euphemia and why the church at the top of the town is dedicated to her? Listen to the story of Batana and Bitinada, the islands of Saint Catherine and Saint Andrew, the customs and lifestyle of the inhabitants, and the language they speak. Old town of Rovinj was built on what was once a small island, now a peninsula. It is rich in narrow, cobbled streets, history and cultural heritage. Once a fishing center, where Venice also ruled, today a charming and romantic town.

About Rovinj

Rovinj is an Istrian fishing town on a small peninsula, with a hilltop church, Venetian-style houses and a coast of islets and pine forest.

Rovinj's old town stands on an oval peninsula, once an island, with narrow cobbled lanes winding up to the baroque church of St Euphemia, whose bell tower, modelled on St Mark's in Venice, rises above the sea. Pastel houses crowd around the harbour, and the Balbi Arch marks one of the old gates. Venice ruled the town for five centuries, and Italian remains in daily use beside Croatian.
