History
Rovinj's baroque bell tower — a scaled-down copy of St. Mark's in Venice — crowns the old town and offers the peninsula's most photographed harbour view. Inside rests the sarcophagus of St. Euphemia, said to have washed ashore in 800 AD.
“The copper weathervane of St. Euphemia on top of the tower actually turns with the wind and locals read the weather from her direction.”
