A vertical sundial on the south facade of the building. The sundial was made and painted by Đenet and Dubravko Tumpić themselves while renovating the house they bought in the mid-1980s. According to their story, the townspeople looked at them strangely for painting the sundial on the new facade. Even the police asked what they were doing and whether they had a permit. They add that a similar sundial appeared on another private house shortly after.
