A mountain trail leads to the ruins, remains of the church on Sv. Damian - 223 m above the place Barbat. The latest research confirms the assumption that this is a building that had three functions: defence, view and observation, which also served as a place of refuge in the event of enemy raids. The floor plan of the fortifications allows the assumption that this could have been the largest Justinian fortification.
