The Church of St. Stephen was built between 1580 and 1614, but only acquired its current appearance at the end of the 18th century. Next to the church there is a 13th century bell tower castle, built at the same time as the older church, which is immediately noticeable due to the difference in style.

The center of what was once the fortified town of Motovun. The town square is surrounded by what was once the castle.
