Church of St Luke
The Church of St Luke is a 12th-century Romanesque building with original frescoes remaining. One of the most interesting things about this church is that it has two altars: a Catholic one and an Orthodox one, showing the historic closeness of these two faiths and the religious tolerance of the Kotor area.

Maritime Museum
The Maritime Museum shows Kotor's formerly high position as a naval power and how important the sea is to the town. The displays proudly tell that in the 18th century, the Bay of Kotor sent out over 400 ships to sail the world's seas. Note the brightly painted bottles reading 'For My True Love' and 'Think of Me', probably given to sailors by their sweethearts.

St Tryphon Cathedral
The St Tryphon Cathedral, originally built in the 11th century, has since been reconstructed several times, due to damage by a number of severe earthquakes. The entire western front was destroyed in 1667 and the replacement stone bell towers add a baroque aspect to the building. The interior is a masterpiece of Romanesque-Gothic architecture.
