The Rector’s Palace is located on the main square. It was built in the 15th century and completed under the rule of Rector Toma Zorzi. It has been the centre of town and island administration for centuries.
A picturesque village on the southern side of the island of Pag, in a pristine, shallow cove with numerous secluded beaches. A former salt pan, built under French rule, can be seen in the cove.
A small village for a peaceful family vacation. The industrious denizens of Proboj raise sheep and are excellent fishers, hence foodies will be delighted by local products like Pag cheese, lamb, high-quality fish, salted pilchards, Dalmatian cured ham, olives, and high-quality wines. Privately-owned suites and rooms offer very nice accommodations.
We simply do not know precisely how long salt has been produced in Pag. Salt production in the Croatian lands was first mentioned in the book about Adriatic salt pans by Prof. Candide from the university in Naples, published in 1912.
Sveti Vid (St. Vitus) is the highest peak on the island of Pag, 348 m above sea level. The small Church of St. Vitus was built there in the 14th century.
The Church of St. Francis (‘Sveti Frane’ in Croatian) was built in the latter half of the 15th century in the northern part of the old town core. Works on its façade continued until mid-1510s. A monastery next to it belonging to the order of Friars Minor Conventual was dissolved in 1785.
