A freshwater well in the middle of the room. The water was believed to have healing properties

Seems like the original bells from the bell tower are kept here in the crypt

View of the entrance of the cathedral from the inside. Straight ahead is a small alley that will lead us to the temple of the Jupiter

Temple of Jupiter

The other sphinx is found here (headless) next to the temple of jupiter

Originally a temple for the Jupiter god (Zeus) in the Roman times, this was changed into the Baptistery of St. John

Just next to the entrance is the Roman sarcophagus

Inside the temple is the big 12th-century cross-shapped baptismal font. On the font, notice the engraving: a bishop (on the left) and the king on his throne (on the right)

Inside the big baptismal font again people dropped their coins inside

Saint John the Baptist, by Ivan Meštrović (him again? is there only one sculptor in Split?)

The original Roman coffered ceiling, with different central motif in each block

We left the temple and the old city and wandered around the New City
