• Cove Lovrečina is located on the central Dalmatian island of Brač near the town of Postira in Croatia.
• The history of this cove is evidenced by the remains of the basilica of St. Lawrence from the 5th-6th century, precisely when the story of the book unfolds.
• The Basilica of St. Lawrence is a single-nave church with a transept and a semicircular apse. In a series of auxiliary rooms to the north, there is a baptistery with a cross-shaped baptismal font (raised above the floor) and a stone ciborium (supported by four columns with capitals and stone beams).
• Remains of frescoes and stucco have been found.
• Local findings indicate a developed Roman and later Greek economy.
• The monastery and basilica belonged to the Benedictines.
• In the 13th century, the monastery and basilica were devastated and abandoned, never to be restored.
• The Late Antique complex of buildings continued to play a role in the Christian community even after being abandoned. Today, pilgrims from nearby Brač towns come here on the feast day of St. Lawrence, August 10.
• The Early Christian Basilica of St. Lawrence in cove Lovrečina is a protected cultural heritage site.
