King Zvonimir in the year 1078 granted an estate in the Field of Kaštela to the convent of Benedictine nuns. A pre-Romanic church of St. Kuzma and Damjan was built there in the 12th century, over remains of an ancient necropolis and an early-Christian church (findings of early-Christian sarcophagi). The relics of St. Virgin Mary, St. Kuzma and Damjan, and the king Stephen of Hungay are kept there near a Roman villa rustica. An oak, over 700 years old, stands in front of the church, under which, according to the legend, Croatian king Zvonimir rested there once.

When you stand on the Peristyle in Split and touch its columns or the sphinx that guards them, it is an incredible realization that you are touching history that is thousands of years old. Even more incredible is the realization that there are living witnesses to the creation of that history. One of them is Stara maslina (Perišić's mastrinka) in Kaštel Štafilić. The age of this mute witness of ancient events is estimated at over 1,500 years (according to some, 1,700), which ranks it among the oldest in the world.*

Between the villages of Nisko and Postinje Donjeg, in the heart of Dalmatian Zagora, there are Rajčica Wells. This hydrological locality, located in the natural depression of Niščanski Gaj, hides ten wells that surround a large puddle.
Puddles and wells have been used for watering livestock since ancient times. Although such locations are not rare in Dalmatian Zagora, this locality was renovated a few years ago and put into the function of tourism, and as such it shined in its full glory. It is not known when exactly they were created. Some call them Roman wells, but it is more likely that they were created sometime during the Middle Ages.

On its way towards the sea the Cetina river has in the course of centuries cut a magnificent canyon in the surrounding mountains. Roaring thunderously from its source, Cetina´s power moved the wheels of mills for centuries before flowing peacefully into the sea. The mills (mlinice), first mentioned as early as the 17th and 18th century, began to flourish int the 19th century when they were renovated by the Radman family, whose name they still carry today.
Today Radman mills has been converted into a restaurant and picnic area. Surrounded by tall trees, ancient mill wheels, a sun dial and a calming pool field with lasy river trouts Radman´s mills enables you to capture the essence of the past
