Iljak is a small lighthouse with a chapel in the harbor of Podgora, in Split-Dalmatia County, west of the new breakwater, in the part of the bay called Kraj. For walkers along the waterfront it is interesting as a building that, because of the construction of the shore, literally changed its address.
It was built in the 19th century, in the middle of the sea, and according to historical sources a wooden bridge connected it with the land. At the beginning of the 1990s the shore was filled in, and later breakwaters and a mole, on which it now stands, were built. The relocation of the road and the land filling required the building to be moved to a more suitable place.
The lighthouse is a protected cultural good, entered in the Register of Cultural Goods of the Republic of Croatia under the code Z-5748.
