The parish church of St. Mark was built in 1851, in a secluded place surrounded by forest vegetation. It contains the famous Valun tablet - a Glagolitic bilingual monument from the 11th century. It is a cultural monument because a Glagolitic tablet was found during the construction, which tells us that there was a church there before, the church is currently a grave church for the local cemetery. The village in which it is located is a famous fishing village whose restaurants can enjoy gastronomic fish specialties.

The mediaval look of the church especially the Coat of Arms of Croatia are a spot of how iconic it is. It was exciting to witness the change of guard which happens mostly on Sundays and Sartudays
