A horizontal stone sundial in the courtyard of the Church of St. Peter. It was originally found in Mrežničke Poljice, near the Baršić house, by the road, sometime in the mid-2000s, according to the conservator. It was moved to the church yard with the agreement of the then parish priest. In March 2016, the new parish priest had a cross placed on the stone sundial, which was reported by Radio Mrežnica and copied by numerous portals. The conservators ordered the cross to be removed, which was soon done, and the holes were filled with concrete. The parish priest expressed his desire that the sundial, as well as the lid of the Roman sarcophagus, be removed from the church yard. Finally, in March 2017, the sundial was moved to its original location, donated by the Baršić family. The portals said that it was a 2000-year-old Roman sundial, but comparing it to other sundials on Josephine road, it is very likely that it was installed during its construction in the 18th century.
The church is a Baroque building with a rectangular floor plan and a polygonal sanctuary. It was built in 1604, and was given a new shape in 1711. In front of the main facade is a bell tower with a bell from 1536. Archaeological finds from the Roman era have been built into the church.
