The church of Our Lady of Planica in Kostirna on the island of Vis stands beside the old road from Vis to Komiža. It is unusual for its round ground plan.
It is mentioned in historical sources in 1668. It is built of stone, with a shallow rectangular apse in the east. At the top of the roof, beneath which runs a cornice of bricks laid diamond-wise, is a lantern. Three phases of building can be made out in the wall, but stylistically it is Baroque. The interior walls are whitewashed, and under the dome they end in a stone corbel. In the apse is a small Baroque altar with a painting of the meeting of Mary and Elizabeth.
The church is a protected cultural good, entered in the Register of Cultural Goods of the Republic of Croatia under the code Z-5695.
