The Dominican monastery is a large complex situated in the east part of the town, close to the city walls and the Fortress Revelin. It represents the major treasury of cultural and art heritage in Dubrovnik.
The Dominicans settled here in 1225, but the church and the monastery were completed in the 14th century. The church of simple architectural design is one of the largest Gothic buildings on the east Adriatic coast. The portal on the southern side with a pointed Gothic arch is work of Bonino of Milano (1419). The interior is rich of sacral works of art of high value, made predominately by the local artists. The 14th century painted crucifix is work of Venetian painter Paolo Veneziano, and the altarpiece of St. Magdalena is work of Titian and his assistants from 1550.
