As a native inhabitant, I experienced unpleasant guest kindness. In the Estonian way, we provide morning porridge to the guests, the guest is not left unserved, and there was nothing to offer for lunch if the desire arose. A rude unsolved case, On behalf of the lady of the manor. I hope that the guests will be offered better service in the future. Greetings Talo Margo 3 months have passed, and the change has worked well. In terms of the wellbeing of the food community, the change has been positive , people travelling in our region can enjoy our beautiful nature and cultural values on a full stomach :) I am the only one who is happy about this :) Welcome to South Esonia

Church of St Donatus

The Church of St Donatus name refers to Donatus of Zadar, who began construction on this church in the 9th century and ended it on the northeastern part of the Roman forum. It is the largest Pre-Romanesque building in Croatia.

The beginning of the building of the church was placed to the second half of the 8th century, and it is supposed to have been completed in the 9th century. The Zadar bishop and diplomat Donat (8th and 9th centuries) is credited with the building of the church. He led the representations of the Dalmatian cities to Constantinople and Charles the Great, which is why this church bears slight resemblance to Charlemagne's court chapels, especially the one in Aachen, and also to the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna. It belongs to the Pre-Romanesque architectural period.

The circular church, formerly domed, is 27 m high and is characterised by simplicity and technical primitivism.
