In the courtyard of the Franciscan monastery in Hvar there is a cypress (Cypressus sempervirens) about 500 years old, which is a great age for this kind of tree. The cross section of its branches is elliptic. To prevent them from breaking because of their weight the Franciscans have propped up the lower branches. Because of its old age and specific appearance this tree is a rare and unusual example of its kind. Leave a Comment

The Franciscan monastery of Our Lady of Grace stands on the coast just five minutes walk from the center. It is the most noticable building on the coastline. The monastry was built in 1450s and 1460s. The bell tower was built some 40-50 years later. There is a museum inside the monastry.
