Parish House, Trogir

The parish house in Trogir stands south of the main town square, and houses the Collection of Sacred Art. It is interesting to visitors who want to see stone fragments from archaeological research and parts of older churches. It belongs to the town of Trogir in Split-Dalmatia County.

The complex has two wings and an L-shaped plan. It is a late Baroque stone three-storey building, extended in the 19th century. Above the entrance of the east façade a Gothic coat of arms of an unknown bearer has remained, and on the ground floor a Gothic door with a rod moulding. The outer façades each have five window axes with profiled lintels. The collection is on the upper floor, and its vestibule is in the northern part of the east wing. In the courtyard, beside the remains of the pre-Romanesque church of St Mary, stone fragments are displayed, and built into the ground floor are the Renaissance portal of the church of the Holy Spirit and coats of arms from the bell tower of Trogir cathedral.

The parish house with its garden is a protected cultural good, entered in the Register of Cultural Goods of the Republic of Croatia under the code Z-3684.
