The Church Of St. Fosca is one of the many temples in Vrsar, is religious and architectural landmark in the city.
The construction of the Church had for the first half of the XVII century. The architectural style of the building is Renaissance, however, the architect was able to incorporate in the overall appearance of even the elements of Baroque. The facade of the building dates back to the Renaissance era, but the doors that lead into the temple itself, look very simple and unpretentious.
Originally at the top of the building there were two bells. One of them was made in the sixteenth century (made by Venetian foundry), but was withdrawn during the First world war. Later this old bell was replaced by a newer, made in the XX century, at the foundry Lapagna in Trieste, Italy. The second bell was made in 1680, it is decorated with images of the faces of the virgin Mary and St. Fosca and crucifixion. While it was the Second world war, the Italians considered the most reasonable solution to remove both bells, but not to use them for military purposes. Subsequently, the bells were returned to the Church, but just had them already in the bell tower of the parish Church of SV. Martin.
Not so long ago in the Church of St. Fosca passed the reconstruction work.
The interior of the Church complements the painting "the Martyrdom of Saint Fosca", which dates back to the XVII century. No less interesting gravestones, decorated with texts in Latin and the coats of arms of noble families.
