Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Founded in the 4th century and added to until the 15th, Pula's cathedral still has fragments of 5th- and 6th-century mosaics in its floor. The main altar is a Roman sarcophagus holding relics of saints from the 3rd century. Stones from the amphitheatre were used to build the bell tower in 1707.
