Church of Saint Peter

Crkva Svetog Petra is a historic church that's been a landmark in the Makarska area since it first appeared on maps in the 16th century. What makes it genuinely worth seeking out is the combination of beautifully preserved fresco paintings, original Gothic ribbed vaulting in the sanctuary, and what's considered one of the finest Mannerist altars in all of northwestern Croatia. It's the kind of layered, centuries-deep history that sneaks up on you — more remarkable inside than you'd expect from the outside.
