The Church of Saint Cosmas and Damian
The Church of Saint Cosmas and Damian (Croatian: Sv Kuzma i Damjan) is a Roman Catholic church on Lastovo Island off the coast of Croatia.
It is located in the oldest part of the town square and dates back to the 14th century. On the main altar is the painting of Saints Cosmas and Damian from the Italian Master Giacomo Lanfranco. Out of the rest of the paintings, the Pietà, the work of an anonymous Venetian painter from 1545, can be distinguished. Formerly in its place there was a smaller church that dates back from 5th or 6th century.
