The Church of St. John the Baptist (St. John the Baptist) dates from the turn of the 13th and 14th centuries. This Romanesque sacral building is rectangular with a semi-circular apse. Before the present parish church of St. Juraj, the church of St. Jana function of the parish church. A cemetery was established around the church. The restoration and protection of the Church of John the Baptist took place under the professional supervision of the Office for the Protection of Cultural Monuments from 1996 to 1998, when a so-called ring was added to the facade – the front of the facade.
Kaštelina is one of the most famous monuments on the island of Vir and is located in the Kozjak area. This fortress was built at the beginning of the 17th century. It was built by the Venetian authorities in order to protect the population of the Nin and Vir homesteads from the invasion of the Turks, who appeared in these areas. Part of the fortifications is still preserved. On the facade of the Kaštelina fortifications are preserved the cloaks of General Provost’s Venetian families for Dalmatia, who administered the area. On the north tower is a partially damaged, winged lion – a symbol of the Venetian Republic. This fortress was rebuilt between May 2001 and April 2002.
Vir Lighthouse was built in 1881 on the southwest coast of the island. This lighthouse is a typical example of large lighthouses that were built in the 19th century on the East Coast and is one of 50 lighthouses built at this time. The lighthouse was inhabited and residents made sure that the lighthouse worked perfectly until the time of automation. During World War II, the lighthouse was based in anti-fascist fighters who maintained links between partisan units in the region and the island of Molat. During the retreat of the German occupying troops, the lighthouse was demolished in 1944. It was rebuilt in 1950. It is no longer inhabited because it has been automated. The lighthouse is located in the geographical position 44 ° 18.2´N / 15 ° 19´E The height of the lighthouse is 21 meters.
Among other sights, we can highlight the remains of many old churches that have not been thoroughly researched and protected. You can see the foundations of the church of St. Juraj, which was built between the 12th and 15th centuries at the top of Bandir hill. This church has a small single-nave structure with a semicircular apse. Nearby are the remains of the Illyrian fortifications.
Church of St. Nikolaus is a sacral building that has survived only in the foundations and these are now covered with asphalt near the tourist office at the beginning of Mula. This church could be demolished in the 13th or 14th century. More will be known when the remains are thoroughly investigated and serious evidence is available.
It is little known about the remains of the church of St. Martin and its surroundings Smrtina, with findings of human skeletons. We believe that there was a cemetery in ancient times. Detailed archaeological research is inevitable.
Many ancient archaeological finds represent graves or mounds from the time of the Illyrian tribes Liburna. The mound is located on Granic-Križica-Gajine, then in the area between Bergen Streljevac and Vranjak and also on the hill Vranjak. The surroundings of Smrtina are full of artifacts from the ancient Stone Age. The village of Gradina, a prehistoric town in the Gaj region near the north coast of the island, deserves special mention. This side resembles the slope of Red Hill.
There are many underwater archeological sites around the island of Vir, most in Srpjica Bay and between Rasovača and Stinica.
