Slaven BERTOŠA
Sažetak
In the legacy of communal principal of Braban Josip Antun Batel, kept in the Archives of Croatian academy of sciences and arts in Zagreb, there are several charters relating the churches in the region of Barban and Rakalj, which was from 1536 constituted as a inde-pendent Venetian feud owned by Loredan family. Author of this article analyses data related to two churches in the region of Barban – one of these is located on the Pisak hill, and other one on a hill near the village of Hrelji ć i. In the early modern times Pisak was known because there was a plan to build up a saltpan and exploit salt in the area of Raša River. There also existed several fi sh-ponds that were often rented. At Pisak was also an old church of St. Mary of the Snow together with the fraternity consecrated to the same saint. This church was a pilgrims’ centre during the days of Our Lady of the Snow (5 August). Author analyses content of the contract from 1668 about a construction of loggia in front of the church St. Mary of the Snow, together with the permission for the foundation of the
church of the Blessed Lady of the Health in Bratulići (1724).
