 TORETA – is the most well known symbol of Silba. It is a hexagonal tower with outer spiral stairs near the local post office. It is about 15 meters high and is used as a viewpoint. In the 19th century Toreta was erected by captain Petar Marinić, and legend says that it was in memory of an unforgotten love. The exceptional view from the top extends over the neighboring islands and the local waters.
KAPELICE – – there are seven white chapels placed at equal intervals from the parish church of Saint Mary and follow to the church of Saint Mark. Each one has two stopping places for the “way of the cross” used by the church procession before the Easter holidays.
VARH - is 80 meters high and the highest point on the island. It is located in the north of the island, and it is easiest to reach from the south side, from the direction of the nearby Papranica Cove. |
