Our Lady of Angels with their ship sirens upon their departure or return to Orebic, as a sign of gratitude and thanks for her protection. The Franciscans would then respond from their bell tower.
The majority of artefacts from various sites are kept in the Museum in Orebic, which also shows in detail its maritime past and includes artefacts from more recent times. The Franciscan monastery at Podgorje above Orebic is the best expression of this unique development.
The church of Our Lady's Ascension was built with support from the Dubrovnik Republic in Gothic style and according to the rules of St Francis. The church monastery, cloister, bell tower with loggia, and a covered belvedere make a complete religious complex with elements of country - house architecture.Because of this monastery's strategic location, at the border between the Dubrovnik Republic ane Venice, its defensive design element was not neglected. Two marble reliefs of Our Lady with the Child Jesus exemplify a higher artistic culture - the works of Renaissance masters from the votive Toscana school of art. The icon Our Lady by an unknown painter from the 16th century is important and used for ceremonialpurposes, and the main altar has paintings by Venetian artists.
Equally valuable is a large wooden crucifix with expressive Gothic characteristics by Juraj Petrovic of Split. This work was considered miraculous and was adored at Otok near Korcula. This religious complex mostly attracted seamen, and there is a maritime collection of gifts and memorials from people of the region.
