Despite its humble exterior, this small Baroque church, named after one of the patron saints of the city, houses one of Zadar's highlights: the St Simeon Chest. A fine example of medieval silversmith, dating back to the 1381, this highly decorated silver casket placed just above the main altar contains the mummified body of St Simeon.
