Salamunić House, Jelsa

The Salamunić House is located in the Bonski dolac area in Jelsa on Hvar. It is interesting for its Latin and Croatian inscriptions and its connection with the Selim mansion complex.

The east façade faces the street, and the south side is enclosed in the block. In the west is a masonry external staircase to the upper floor, with a Latin inscription on the lintel. The house is built of roughly dressed stone, partly plastered, with a gabled roof of grooved tiles and a stone cornice on brackets under the eaves. The street and courtyard façades each have two window axes. Beside the house is a portal towards the common courtyard of the Selim mansion, with an inscription from the 17th century in Latin and Croatian.

The house is a protected cultural good, entered in the Register of Cultural Goods of the Republic of Croatia under the code Z-4993.
