The Culture and Historical Sites of Murter

>> The continuity of the town Murter reaches from the antique period during which there existed an iliric - roman settlement, Colentum, which is confirmed by the archeological findings from that period near Gradina and the small island Mali Vinik. Today name Murter is in use since 1715 while back in the 13th century it was known as Velo selo and in the 16th and 17th it was known under the name Srimač. The parish is mentioned in 1298, and in the 15th century it included the islands Žirje and Zlarin.

>> Betina, which was formed in the meantime, belonged to the parish till 1640. The oldest church in the settlement is the church of the Lady of Gradina, which is the 3rd church built in the same place and probably reaches to the antique period. It takes on it's todays shape in the 18th century. The begining of the construction of the todays church, the church of St. Mihovil, is hard to place, but it is presumed that the foundation was layed down between 1470 and 1470 when Margarita Dragoević, whose family had patronige over the parish, declares in her will the construction of a chappel in Velo Selo and in that purpose she leaves some funds. Today there is no sign of that chappel, beacuse it was reconstruced and restored several times. The last significent recostruction was done in 1770 (the date on the facade) and in 1847 it takes on the today look in 1964. Especialy intresting is the barok church altar made by the Del Aqua brothers in 1779 and the gothic statue of the Mother of God.

>> On the hill above the village there is an oath church of St. Rok from 1760. build as votive church beacuse of pestilence epidemic. In the parish there worked a group of glagolitics until 1907, when they were substituted with a Latin parish. The log of birth started in 1635. It is interesting that in the middle ages all the communiqué between the people and the parish was written in native language, because the local residents didn?t speak neither Italian or Latin.

>> Written documents tell us of an existence of brotherhoods, and so in 1626 we know of the existence of the brotherhood of St. Mihovil, which exited before that time as well. In the parish are also kept the artifacts from the brotherhood of The Holy Spirit from 1753 and St. Mihovil from 1764.

>> The parish territorially integrates the islands of Kornati, on the island of Kornat there is a church of St. Mary which was built inside an early Christian basilica (20x13m). In the town of Murter there is one of the earliest open libraries in Dalmatia, open in 1866.
