The church is the only sacral structure in Nin that has remained untouched since its construction. It is popularly called "the smallest cathedral in the world" .The position and beauty of the church dominate the area.

It is a city monument, surrounded by historical ramparts, a treasury of the archaeological and monumental riches of ancient and medieval times, Renaissance and many contemporary architectural achievements such as the first sea organs in the world.
Sea Organ
The Sea Organ is situated near the new cruiser port, within the Zadar waterfront. This is a place where human ideas and skills are joined with the energy of the sea, waves, high and low tide, a place of relax, thinking and conversation accompanied by the continual concert of the mystical tones of the "Orchestra of Nature".
Greeting to the Sun
The Greeting to the Sun installation, as a model of the solar system and its appertaining planets, is connected to the Sea Organ whose sound is transposed into a show of light that starts performing on the Zadar waterfront after sunset. In creating the light effects, the installation will be able to receive other outer and spontaneous impulses through modem connection, while the pictures created by the light will adapt to different occasions.
Kalelarga
