Just 30 kilometers inland from Sibenik is the delightful small town of Drnis, once famous for its 15th-century fort, built as a defense against invasion.
The fort was eventually captured, and Drnis fell to the Turks, who built a number of important structures, including a mosque and Turkish baths.
While much of these were later destroyed during fighting in the 16th century, some elements of the occupation can still be seen, including in the church of St. Anthony, built from the remains of the old mosque.
