Jewel of the Adriatic
Beautiful, historic Rovinj dips into the Adriatic like a toe testing the water. The 60-metre-tall bell tower of the Church of St. Euphemia overlooks Rovinj’s historic centre. The church, which was built in the early 1700s over the remains of older Christian holy structures, acts as a beacon that welcomes home the town’s fleet of fishing boats each evening.
