Cathedral of Saint Domnius
The Cathedral of Saint Domnius in Split is the oldest cathedral in the world still in regular use, converted from the octagonal Roman mausoleum of Emperor Diocletian (who persecuted Christians) into a Christian church in the 7th century. The irony of turning a persecutor's tomb into a cathedral dedicated to his Christian victims was not lost on medieval commentators. The cathedral's campanile offers the best views over the UNESCO World Heritage palace complex and Adriatic coastline.
