St Agnes, Medulin, Croatia

St Agnes.St Agnes.
The parish church of St Agnes was built in 1893 and designed by Andjelo Meyer. It is the only parish church in Istria with two bell towers. It is named after the patron saint of the parish, St Agnes of Rome. You don't want to know what happened to St Agnes. She is a protector of virginity, engaged couples, physical purity, lambs, crops, and gardeners. One wonders if she protects the gardens from the lambs, though.

– Information culled as usual by the Post Editor from the snapshot of the explanatory plaque the photographer thoughtfully provided.
