The church, which is open to all visitors, was founded in the 12th century when the Franciscan order came to Pula.
The building has retained its original form from the 13th century, and connects the monastery and the church, liturgical masses are still held in it and it is the center of Christian life in Pula.

as a devout Catholic I could not pass up the chance to visit the church and monastery of St Francis. It is not excessive in its grandeur. I found the mosaic quite interesting coupled with the fact that the church was built on a previous cultic edifice site was intriguing. While it may not appeal to the young and restless, its a great serene monastery when you want to step away from the local tourist attractions.
