History and architecture

Tri Sestrice – Nazor’s three-column monument

Kargadur · above Bobovišća na MoruOther names: Tri sestrice – Nazorov trostup1937.The pin marks the general area based on the source description. The exact location of the structure and the approach have not been confirmed; check locally before setting out.

Summary

The three-column monument Vladimir Nazor dedicated to his sisters Irma, Olga and Amalija is part of the literary and family landscape above Bobovišća na Moru.

The original three-column monument above the harbour should be distinguished from the newer replica by the coast.

A memorial to the sisters

In 1937, Vladimir Nazor built a symbolic structure with three columns and a frieze. The letters I, O and A stand for his sisters Irma, Olga and Amalija. This personal family memorial became a recognisable part of the harbour’s literary heritage.

The house, the slope and the replica

The house of Vladimir Nazor is in the coastal centre, while the original Tri Sestrice belongs to the Kargadur slope. The municipality also notes a replica installed in Vrelo Park in 2020. These are not the same object, and their photographs should not be mixed up.

Orientation and access

The pin marks the broader area of Kargadur based on the source description, not a confirmed entrance to the original three-column monument. Check the local route and property boundaries before setting out; the proximity of the coastal settlement does not mean every path is public.
