Cute little church in a former guard corridor above the golden gate. Although you can be outside just as quickly as you are inside, the price is moderate (children free, 5Kn per adult) and interesting. Greetings to the very nice, good English speaking nun at the entrance.

Tiny church built into the Roman walkway over the Golden gate. You pay €1 to the nun for entrance. Has views over the Golden Gate, but only if you are tall enough to see out of windows (my 4’10” partner was out of luck). It’s also accessed by three flights of steep stairs. A great hidden historical gem.

Classic

This small church is located in a cavity in the north wall of Diocletian's Palace (entering through the Golden Gate). The space where it is built is less than 2 meters wide by 10 meters long and is accessed through a narrow staircase. In ancient times it was used as a guardhouse for Roman soldiers, then it was converted into a church sometime in the 6th century when the complex saw an influx of refugees from nearby communities. It is currently cared for by nuns who keep the place impeccable for tourists. The collaboration required to enter is minimal and well worth it.

Tiny but very historic chappel/church in the former waiting area for Roman soldiers situated in the old Roman gate. Entrance is 5 Kuna. Worth a look.

This might be the smallest and/or narrowest church in the world. It is about 5 ft. across, and it is difficult to enter and exit in a crowd. We found this church looking for the old synagogue, and ended up going inside this church. The church is governed by Benedictine nuns, I believe, and it can only be accessed by a narrow staircase. This church is right inside the Old City walls, perhaps even built into it, and is rather Gothic/Romanesque in appearance. There is a beautiful medieval stone altar screen, behind it the altar, and a golden devotional picture of the Holy Grail (or chalice). On the wall is a wooden crucifix, and next to it, the floor plan of the church. There is usually one or two nuns supervising the church, and they do appreciate donations to keep the church running.

An absolute must visit. This tiny closet church in the sentries walkway of the old walled city. Built 285-305 this simple church is special.

(Translated by Google) The smallest church in the city of Split. Located above the Golden Gate of the palace, exactly where once the soldiers' passage was 1700 years ago. The church probably dates from the 11th century. and was in the late 19th century. rediscovered. Next to the church is a Dominican nunnery. The nuns run the church today. The church was lost and forgotten for a long time. Many nuns died in a big plague plague. The few who survived when they returned did not find it anymore. Everything was robbed and the rest smashed. Although nuns have built the monastery but the Martinskirche used them for a long time as a storage room. Only Frano Bulić has found her again and made strong efforts to liberate the church and restore what was needed. Thanks to Frano Bulić is nowadays walkable and a small diadem in the huge palace. (Original) Die kleinste Kirche der Stadt Split. Befindet sich über dem Goldenem Tor des Palastes, und zwar genau dort wo einst der Soldatengang war vor 1700 Jahren. Die Kirche stammt vermutlich aus dem 11.Jh. und wurde im spätem 19.Jh. wiederentdeckt. Neben der Kirche ist ein dominikaner Frauenkloster. Die Nonnen betreiben heute die Kirche. Die Kirche war sehr lange verschollen und vergessen. Bei einer grossen Pestplage starben auch viele Nonnen. Die paar wenige die überlebten als sie zurück kehrten fanden sie nichts mehr vor. Alles wurde ausgeraubt und der Rest zertrümmert. Nonnen haben zwar den Kloster aufgebaut aber die Martinskirche benutzten sie sehr lange als Abstellkammer. Erst Frano Bulić hat sie wieder gefunden und sich stark eingesetzt um die Kirche zu befreien und restaurieren was von Nöten war. Dank Frano Bulić ist heutzutage freibegehbar und ein kleines Diadem im riesen Palast.

The tiniest church ever. Really nice.

The smallest church I have been with only 2 seats. Great history, nice place.
