From the 1964 film "The Viking Raid" starring Richard Widmark and Sidney Poitier, and made of papier-mâché. Left behind in and around Budva after filming... In 2025, the bell will house a souvenir stand.

A tragic love story revolves around the figure. The woman was a ballerina named Diana, who threw herself into the sea when her beloved sailor failed to return from a voyage.

Time and again, hikers and walkers pass by a fortification, at least partially preserved, built in earlier centuries to protect the city of Budva and its inhabitants. To this day, the structure remains an impressive testament to the engineering skills of the time.

An image of Mary in this church, which is dedicated to John the Baptist, was (or so it was once believed) supposedly painted by the Evangelist Luke. In his version of the "Good News" (the translation/meaning of the term "Gospel"), he not only described the life, deeds, and sayings of Jesus Christ himself, but also repeatedly mentioned the Virgin Mary. This begins with the angel's announcement to her that she would bear the Son of God. Therefore, in the Middle Ages, images of Mary were often assumed to be painted by the Evangelist Luke. The idea that he had not only described her in words in the Gospel but also painted her was widespread at the time. Even though the image venerated here naturally dates from a much later period, the legend of its origin according to Luke was very popular in earlier times.

This small, historic Orthodox city church was built in 1804 and is located in Budva's Old Town. It stands right next to the city walls and the citadel on the west side of the Old Town. The church is known for its distinctive architecture, with a bell tower and a rose window above the entrance. Admission to the church is free, but photography is not permitted inside.

This is a bronze statue of a ballerina on Mogren Beach in Budva. Sculptor Gradimir Alesis created this monument inspired by the legend of the lover Diana of Budva to the sailor. The groom never returned from a voyage, and the bride plunged into the sea and faithfully stayed with him.
