Crkva sv. Roka nalazi se na najvišem trpanjskom brežuljku, s kojeg se pruža pogled na cijelo mjesto i morsku pučinu. Crkva je građena krajem 16. stoljeća kao zavjetna crkva. Sv. Rok ili Roko svetac je rimokatoličke Crkve koji je živio u 14. stoljeću u Francuskoj i dva puta obolio od kuge. Štuje ga se kao zaštitnika od kuge i općenito zaraznih bolesti. U 19. stoljeću crkva je doživjela preinake. Do crkve vodi monumentalno stubište, izgrađeno 1927. godine. Druge i manje stepenice vode do crkvice sv. Nikole na drugom brežuljku.

I loved the variety of books in the library. They hold the history of croatians with the roman rulers. History in church.

Art has always fascinated me. I visited this gallery and it surpased my imagination. I never knew the old and the new can be put together to produce something fabulous and magical. My bird watching and bird feeding experience was good.

We were very astonished by the talent of the painters, it was a great feeling just looking at the frescoes within the altar. It has numerous statues, i especially loved how they were arranged. The art surpassed my imagination and made me appreciate artwork more. The view from the hill was panoramic, we could see the village and the sea very clearly. Will definitely come back

Attending the feast of St. Rocco to celebrate the saint to which the church was dedicated, was an honorable opportunity. I learnt and interacted with people from the community.
