The Gold and Silver of Zadar

The Gold and Silver of Zadar is a compact but remarkable museum in St. Mary’s Benedictine Convent, displaying sacred art and liturgical treasures from churches around Zadar. Its collection includes finely crafted reliquaries, crosses, manuscripts, and metalwork spanning the Middle Ages to the Baroque period. More than a display of precious objects, it offers insight into the city’s religious, artistic, and political history. It is especially worthwhile for visitors interested in medieval heritage, church art, or a quieter cultural stop in Zadar’s old town.
