A vertical sundial from 1806 on the south facade of a residential building. According to Đorđe Trošt, a tenant of the building, the sundial was installed when the building was built in 1806. It was probably a hotel before, as remains of numbers were found on the room door, and the building also had a cistern and a spacious tavern for storing food and drinks. The Trošt family moved into the building in 1949, and according to the purchase documents, the building was also inhabited by the Italian surgeon Zadro, then the sailor Vianelli who moved to Trieste in 1932, then his daughter, married to doctor Colpi, with whom she also moved to Italy eight years later.
