The roofless Church of St George is about 300 meter southwest of Golemo Gradiste and 400 meter west of the Roman Rotunda Church.

It is located on the cemetery of Konjuh.

A fragment of a Roman tombstone was built into one of the walls, see the pictures.

The proposed dates of the construction run from the 14th to the 16th century. It is not known when the roof collapsed, but it happened before 1938 when the church was already reported to be roofless.

Remains of frescoes can still be seen on the walls (see the pictures).

In 1954 the Church of St George was declared a "monument of culture" and placed under legal protection.
