FAMILY MAUSOLEUM MEŠTROVIĆ

Religious buildings

10 km to the east of Drniš, this village saw the growth of the sculptor Ivan Meštrović (1883-1962), who had a family mausoleum built on top of the hill Paraćeva glavica from 1926 to 1930. There he will be buried, surrounded by his mother Marta, his father Mate, his brothers Marko and Petar, his son Tvertko and his wife Olga. Under the dome, the New Testament representations are to be compared with the Way of the Cross in the Christic Chapel (Meštrović I Obnovljene Crikvine) in Split.
