A lovely little town, set on a hill facing west. It is the historical centre of the island and a twin town of Mali Lošinj, which developed faster through history. 

Above the entrance to the harbour, as if watching over it, stands the baroque Church of St. Anthony from the 17th century, which was built on the remains of a smaller church from the 15th century that had been pulled down. The church has an impressive interior with baroque altars, an organ by the Venetian master Callido, beautiful reliefs, statues and paintings, among them Madonna with Saints by Vivarini and a number of paintings by the Titian and Tiepolo school painters. 
The church is a museum at the same time, one of the most valuable on the Kvarner islands. It owes its origin to the generosity of the local sea captains and their love of their home town. 

The Venetian campanile from the 15th century, the beautiful fronts of stone palaces and houses, set in parks with exotic vegetation, remind us of the history of this town of wealthy ship-owners and sea captains. Hotels, restaurants, private rooms and apartments offer plenty of choice.
