Murter island
Murter is an island in northern Dalmatia, located near Pirovac. Apart from Murter, other settlements on the island include small towns of Betina, Jezera and Tisno. Murter was first mentioned as Veliko Selo in the 13th century, and in the 18th century it got its current name. In order to get to the island, it is necessary to cross the drawbridge built in the 19th century. The island abounds with cultural heritage such as ancient frescoes and mosaics, Roman villas and the like. Near the hill of Gradina you can find the remains of the Roman city Colentum, which was devastated in the 2nd century. There you can also find the church of Our Lady of Gradina dating from the 17th century, and the cemetery with early Croatian graves.
