HVAR☀Croatia ▪ Franciscan Monastery ▪ Angelus Bell Ringing at Noon
Franjevački samostan - Otok Hvar.
Podnevno zvono snimljeno na kanalu Hvar Live:
Zvonik s druga dva u Hvaru spada u najljepše spomenike renesanse XVI.st. u Dalmaciji. Izgrađen je od klesanoga kamena s renesansnom kupolom. Gradnja je ugovorena 23. srpnja 1507. s majstorima: Blažem Andrijevićem i Franjom i Nikolom Španićem iz Korčule.
In the 15th century a Franciscan monastery was built together with the church of Saint Mary of Mercy. Architecturaly proportional bell-tower, together with the one of Saint Mark and the Cathedral one creates an exceptional vertical frame of the town. Relief of the church portrays ''Denouncement'' and it came from the workshop of Petar Fiorentinac. The church keeps a painting of the crucifixion of Christ by Leonardo Basan, poliptih by Francesco de Santa Croce and paintings of the passion of Christ by a Hvar comediographer Martin Benetović – the author of ''Hvarkinja'' (the woman from Hvar). The western wall of the monastery refectory holds a painting of the Last Supper, one of the most famous paintings on the Adriatic coast made on the tradition of Venetian painters Veronese and Tintoretti. Traditionally it is attributed to Mateo Rosseli, but according to recent studies to one of our painters Mateo Ponzzoni Pončun.
The monastery museum holds valuable paintings, collection of money, incunabulas and a copy of Ptolemy's atlas from 1524. A famous old cypress tree grows in the monastery garden, besides its old age known also for its amorphic form. This ancient cypress does not grow in height as other specimens of that kind, but with its flat branches grows horizontally across the garden. The Way of the Cross leads from the monastery to town, marked by 14 chapels representing 14 Stations of the Cross, built in the 18th century.

Emperor Diocletian
The Temple of Jupiter (Croatian: Jupiterov hram) is a temple in Split, Croatia dedicated to the Ancient Roman god Jupiter. It is located in the western part of Diocletian's Palace near the Peristyle, the central square of the imperial complex. It was built between 295 and 305, during the construction of the Palace, and was probably turned into Baptistery of St. John the Baptist in the 6th century, at the same time when the crypt dedicated to St. Thomas was built. Before the entrance to the Temple is one of the twelve sphinxes brought from Egypt by Emperor Diocletian. Scottish architect Robert Adam considered this temple to be one of Europe's most beautiful monuments.
Description
The Temple of Jupiter was constructed between 295 and 305 as part of Diocletian's Palace. It was dedicated to the supreme Roman god and Diocletian's divine father, Jupiter. The temple is located in the western, religious part of the palace. Since the Emperor unexpectedly abdicated the throne in 305 and arrived at the palace from Nicomedia earlier, finishing work on the construction of the Palace was stopped so parts of the Temple remained unfinished.
Reliefs depicting gods and various heroes, such as Victoria, Triton, Helios, Hercules, Jupiter and Apollo, are placed in front of the Temple, above the entrance. Doorways are richly decorated, especially the impressive Temple's barrel coffered vault.
Sarcophagi, containing the remains of two Archbishops of Split, Ivan of Ravenna (died c. 10) and Lovre (died c. 1099), are placed inside the Temple. In addition, there is a large bronze statue of St. John the Baptist made by Ivan Meštrović. A Renaissance sarcophagus of Jakov Selembrije from the 16th century is placed in front of the baptistery.
In the 11th century, a Romanesque style bell tower was built above the vault. It is similar to one in the Church of Our Lady of the Tower above Iron Gate of Diocletian's palace, which was demolished around 1840 in accordance with the then classicist aspirations which argued for purification of ancient monuments and buildings.
During late Antiquity and the Middle Ages, the Temple was converted into a baptistery dedicated to St. John the Baptist, while the crypt was dedicated to St. Thomas.
In the 13th century, the baptismal font made of parts of the altar partition from the 11th century which was originally located in the Cathedral was placed within the baptismal font. The oldest representation of Croatian king Peter Krešimir IV or Demetrius Zvonimir with their subjects is engraved on one of the marble rood screens. The second rood screen is decorated with pentagram with flowers and birds inside a star that is surrounded by a wreath which represents the Holy Trinity and the two natures of Jesus Christ - the divine and the human. A third rood screen is decorated with motifs of Croatian interlace in various forms.
The Temple's barrel coffered vault influenced Dalmatian early Renaissance art which is best seen in the example of Andrea Alessi's baptistery and Chapel of blessed John in Trogir.
In 1907, a few houses on the west and south side of the Temple were demolished, so the Temple was freed of fittings, except those in the northwest corner that are still leaning against it.

STORYLINE:
Pope John Paul II made a private visit to the 19th century Djakovo cathedral in the Slavonia region of Croatia on Saturday, where he was welcomed by the town's large Catholic community.
The pontiff did not celebrate mass during his brief visit, but prayed silently at the alter.
John Paul, making the 100th foreign tour of his papacy, brought a message of reconciliation to this corner of Croatia still embittered by the war 1991 for independence from Yugoslavia.
It's the Pope's third visit to this overwhelmingly Catholic country, and a test of his his age and health - John Paul suffers from Parkinson's disease and crippling knee and hip ailments.
Earlier on Saturday John Paul sought to heal the wounds of the recent war in Croatia and overcome ancient religious divisions as he celebrated Mass for 200,000 people who packed an airfield under a punishing sun.
More than a decade after the ethnic conflict in the region, tensions in Croatia remain and nationalism is resurging, worrying leaders who are struggling to prepare the country for membership in the European Union, perhaps as early as 2007.

Legend of St. Paul
According to various sources which mention the travels of St. Paul, during his sail across the Adriatic he was shipwrecked and stranded on a deserted, wooded and unknown island full of snakes – Melita.
The ship was marooned on a small sea rock, which the natives of Mljet call the Rock of St. Paul. Fishermen still believe that they must pass through the strait of St. Paul before going fishing in order to have a good catch.
In the area of Crkvine, there are excavations of unknown stone wall for which people believe it is the foundation of the Church of St. Paul. (See Discover Croatia video on the island of Mljet.)
