The evidences of proud and turbulent Omis history can be found on every corner of
the Omis Riviera. Ancient town of Omis, Omis churches and Omis fortresses are
silent stone reminders of the power and the might of famous Omis corsairs.
There are several historic names, including Onaion (Oneon), Holm (Hum), Nestos,
Oneum (Onaeum), Olmisi, Olmissium, Almivssium, and Almissa. The oldest artifacts
that mention Omis date back to Greek and Roman times.
During the Middle Ages Omis was infamous for its corsairs (pirates) whose ships
brought fame to them because they were built for attack and fast return into the
mouth of the Cetina River, protecting the town from foreign invasion. At a very
early date neighbors of the Corsairs of Omis, the highlanders of the Poljica
Principality, became their allies, enabling them to harass the sea trade without
fear of a sudden attack by land.
In spite of various alliances against Omiš pirates, including the Pope, Venice,
Split and Dubrovnik, it was not until 1444 that Venice managed to capture the
old pirate town. It happened owing to the approaching Turkish force that made
the amber way dangerous, almost impossible. It also meant the decline of the
power of the pirates. Deprived of their prey, they lost their strength and the
reason for existence. The danger from the Turks became more and more serious.
Yet, despite the fact that they conquered the nearby hinterland, Omiš had never
fallen into their hands.
Due to permanent threats from the land, as well as from the sea, the existing
fortress “Starigrad” (Fortica), with military crew in it, and supporting tower
“Visec” in Cetina River canyon, were not enough for town defense, so, already in
Middle Ages, Omis was encircled by walls, fortified with strongholds on the
eastern land side, and fortress “Peovica” (Mirabella) on the north-western side.
In the Priko neighborhood, on the right bank of the Cetina River, stands the
most important building in the city, the pre Romanesque St. Peter's church from
the 10th century. This single-naved edifice, with a cupola and apse, was used in
the 18th century as a Glagolithic seminary for novice priests




Fortress Mirabella (Peovica) - Romanesque fortress, built in
XIII. century above the town. Mirabela or Peovica was a reliable hideout for the
Omis pirates who used to retreat into the safety of the Cetina gorge. There is
an interesting story about Mirabella. In 1537, during an attack by the Turks,
the defenders of Omis confused the attackers with their shouting and shots so
much that the Turks overestimated the number of defenders and fled. A favorably
chosen position on the tower will multiply any sound with echo, which will be
aided by the river, making it impossible to locate the source of the sound.
Mirabela can be reached by climbing up the stairs from Subic Street and passing
by the small church of the Holy Spirit. The trip takes approximately 15
minutes.
Fortress Starigrad (Fortica) - coming down from the Mosor, the
wind called bura grew wild in gorges of Peruna and Dovnja, stirring the Cetina
into frothing frenzy and tearing the flag on the battlements of Fortica. Guards,
huddled around a fire, concluded: “Not even the Satan would ever attack in a
storm like this.”
“I'll go the rounds anyway”, said Frano. He struggled to open the door and got
to the edge of the tower. He watched attentively until on Prirovo he saw the
candlelight he was expecting. Mihaela had lit a candle in the window. They
didn't meet in public because the girl was from the prominent Didic family,
while Frano was a young Vlach, merely a scout. Leaping forward, Frano came down
to the Cetina across the sandbank of Planova. He found a boat under a willow
tree, jumped in and started rowing. A blast of bura turned the boat over, and
the river swallowed the young man. Tomorrow, people in Starigrad started saying
that Frano had run away to the Turks, but Mihaela recognized the boat at the
Cetina estuary and kept silent about the big secret. The stings of remorse never
left her for as long as she lived, and she could be seen wandering along the
Prika bank, watching the river eddying below Starigrad.
Starigrad can be reached by car up to Baucic, and then there is a twenty-minute
walk along a marked path.
Church of Sv. Mihovil (St. Michael) - The church of Sv.Mihovil
(St. Michael), as parish and the main church replaced the medieval church which
was too small for citizens of Omis, so they had decided, in year 1604, to renew
the old one and to built the new, aisled, more spacious church with presbytery.
The construction of belfry, which is rising above the rock behind the main
parish church, had started in 1720, and was completed in 1724. Parish church of
Sv.Mihovil (St.Michael) is one of the Omiš's most important architectural
heritage. It is a combination of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque styles, while
portal, as one of the most interesting art achievements in Dalmatia in that time
is an expression of folk mannerism.
Among the plenty of artistically shaped and valuable objects, the most valuable
and the most famous are four altar pale: Descent of the Holy Ghost, Sv. Stjepan
Prvomucenik (St. Stephan), Our Lady of Ružarje and Our Lady with Child, Sv.
Juraj (St.George) and Sv. Jelena (St. Helena). of them were made and brought to
Omis during the construction and decoration of the church. They were made by
Venetian artist Palmo junior’s group. The Crucifix on the altar of St. Cross,
made by sculptor Juraj Petrovic, as well as altars of Our Lady and Sv.Mihovil
(St. Michael), made by sculptor Ivan Rendic are also very valuable
artifacts.
Church of Sv. Duh (Holy Ghost) - at the end of the main street
is a small church of the Holy Spirit from the 16th century; the Renaissance
wooden altar features the painting Descent of the Holy Spirit by the Venetian
painter J. Palma the Younger. The church was built in 1585., on the remains of
the older, gothical church.
Church of Sv. Petar (St. Peter) - Church of Sv. Petar (St.
Peter) in Omiš.
Church St. Petar at Priko – the one of the rare Pre-Romanesque buildings in
Croatia, built in X. century and well preserved until now days. Located on the
right bank of the Cetina river, it is first mentioned in the documents in the
year 1074., during the reign of the king Slavac.
