Permanent exhibit of paintings, statues, liturgical items, arts and crafts.
The parish of Vrsar has a rich collection of sacral objects originating mostly from Vrsar and Funtana, but also from other settlements in Istria and beyond. It is a collection that was collected, maintained, documented and partly described by the former Vrsar pastor, the Rev. Ivan Jelovac. Although the items in the collection originate mostly from Vrsar, and to a lesser extent from Funtana and other parts of Istria, it is owned by the Parish of Vrsar.
Its sacral collection contains valuable exhibits, such as the painting “Martyrdom of St. Fosca” from the 17th century. Especially attractive are the sepulchral slabs decorated with coat-of-arms and Latin texts. In front of the main altar there is the tomb of the Vrsar priest Luka Prodanić (Luca Prodanich), Croat, who died in 1659. The clerical symbols (Chalice and host) are engraved on the slab.
