Cathedral of Saint Domnius, Split

Definitely worth a visit when in Split. It's a major part of Split's rich history, so it shouldn't be missed. The treasury had interesting artifacts and relics as well. It's definitely not as large, nor as grand as the other famous cathedrals in other countries, but still beautiful, nonetheless.

Looked an interesting place to have a look. Lots of people going in to have a look, until the 'gentlemen' at the front gate put his hand in my face and said "no, we're closed today, maybe tomorrow" before letting a load more people in. Lovely experience in Split so far 😂 I'm gonna guess it's a little discrimatory unless you're blatantly local.

It’s a Catholic Church, but only locals can go in without paying an entrance fee. I understand that they have the right to charge a fee if you go there during the visit hours. I understand that you have to pay a fee if you want to climb the tower, the cripta or anything else, but it is not acceptable to be charge to visit the church itself. If it open to the public, it should open to all and everyone. It even more upsetting that, next to the “guards” at the entrance, there were some priests. Really really upsetting. I’ve never seen something like this in any other church around the world.

Just went to say the rosary as I am on pilgrimage for my deceased mother and was told only local people are allowed to go in and pray. And yes, I was dressed appropriately. I have never been turned away from a Catholic church before and told i couldn't go in and pray. Never, anywhere in the world. So much for sanctuaries.

Beautiful and cheap to get into. The treasury has some relic bones which are pretty cool and the Temple of Jupiter, while small, is amazing.
