Church of Our Lady of Health

Located on the square next to the Croatian National Theatre, this site is a religious complex featuring a modern white sanctuary paired with an older Baroque bell tower. Visitors go here to see the architectural contrast between the two eras and to visit the painting gallery located within the attached Franciscan monastery.

Getting There

The church is situated within the eastern side of the city center. From the main pedestrian areas of Split, it is a short walk of approximately 5 to 10 minutes.

Duration of Visit

Allow roughly 30 to 60 minutes to view the sanctuary and browse the monastery's gallery.

When to Visit

Visiting during weekday mornings typically avoids the larger crowds associated with weekend services or peak tourist hours. Like most central sites in Split, the area becomes more crowded during the summer months.
