Abstract
The medieval church dedicated to Saints Peter, Lawrence and Andrew, known as Petilovrijenci, was built in mid-14th century on the main street in Dubrovnik. In the early 19th century the remains of the church, rebuilt after the earthquake of 1667, were sold at public auction to Luka Sorkočević who built a Neo-Classicist palace on the site. The paper analyses the first, medieval phase of the construction of the church on the basis of available published and unpublished archival sources from the Dubrovnik State Archives, the description of the church in the records of the apostolic visitation of Giovanni Francesco Sormano and archaeological documentation of excavations on the site of the former church. New findings related to its architecture are compared to known representations of the church of Petilovrijenci.
