Church of St. Flor (Cvitak), Pomer

The church of St. Flor, popularly called Cvitak, is located in the cemetery in Pomer, in the municipality of Medulin, Istria County. For visitors it is interesting for its frescoes, which in the apse show three different layers of painting.

It is Romanesque, single-nave, with a prominent semicircular apse. At the end of the 17th century its facade was remodeled and a bell gable with two arches for bells was built. In the apse three layers of wall paintings have been preserved: the oldest is Romanesque, the middle one is visible only in traces, and the youngest, from the late 15th century, shows Christ in glory between the Virgin Mary and St. Flor. In the lower zone part of a row of apostles in Gothic niches has survived. Two early Christian transennae are built into the right side wall, and in the cemetery's enclosing wall a stone fragment with interlace decoration is built in.

The church is a protected cultural good, entered in the Register of Cultural Goods of the Republic of Croatia under the code Z-2199.
