Šublenta

On top of Šublenta, a 351-meter high hill, there is the Church of the Nativity of Mary erected in the 17^th century on the location of a former Benedictine abbey. In the paleocroatian period, the time of the migration of Croats in the 6^th and 7^th centuries, this hill hosted their pagan shrine. Before that and after the arrival of the Romans, the site features an Illyric fortified borough of a circular layout and protected by walls. Today pilgrims gather here on 8 September, the feast of the Birth of the Virgin Mary.
