The photo shows the Catholic Church of St. Leopold Mandić in the Old Town in Herceg Novi: Location: It is located in the Old Town, just below Belavista Square (Herceg Stjepana Square), on the road/stairs leading down to the Church of St. Jerome and the sea. Characteristic appearance: It is recognizable by its yellow facade, rosette above the entrance and modest dimensions. History and dedication: The church was built by the Venetians in 1688 after the liberation of the city from the Ottomans. It was originally dedicated to the Venetian world (St. Francis / St. Mary), and later it was dedicated to St. Leopold Mandić — a famous Catholic saint and Capuchin who was born precisely in Herceg Novi in 1866.
