St. Bernardino Church

The stone walls of St. Bernardino Church stand near the Adriatic Sea, featuring preserved arches and architectural elements from medieval construction techniques

The church structure dates from the period between the mid-15th and early 16th centuries, representing a time of religious expansion in the coastal region of Slovenia

Local authorities designated the church as a monument of significance, preserving its remains as a testament to religious heritage in the Piran Municipality

Recent renovations added a semi-movable folding roof and spiral staircases, allowing visitors to explore the structure throughout the year regardless of weather conditions

Metal and wooden materials integrated into the restoration create a modern contrast against the original masonry while maintaining the structural integrity of the church ruins
