Park sv. Jakova uređen je 2011. godine podno župne crkve sv. Jakova iz 18. stoljeća, u čije znamenitosti se ubraja kip sv. Jakova, sveca zaštitnika Jadranova. Legenda govori da su mornari ploveći morem podno crkve u moru pronašli drveni kip sv. Jakova, izvukli ga i bacili u vatru da bi se ugrijali. Kako nije htio goriti bacili su ga natrag u more, ali im je brod odmah nakon toga potonuo. Neki ljudi pronašli su kip i odnjeli ga u mjesto Drivenik, nakon čega je silna tuča napravila veliku štetu na ljetini pa su kip vratili gdje su ga našli. Tako se kip ponovno našao u Jadranovu, no i ovdje je tuča sve poharala. Pošteđen je ostao samo prostor oko kućice u koju su se ljudi sklonili, pa su zaključili da kip svetoga Jakova mora ostati upravo na tome mjestu. Od te stare kućice koja je ljudima pružila sklonište nastala je kapelica, a nalazila se na mjestu današnje crkve sv. Jakova.

pristup: Park se nalazi u blizini Crkve sv. Jakova. Moguć je pristup autom, a onda treba malo protegnuti noge i stepenicama sići do parka. Na ovom GeoKiss mjestu možete uživati u prekrasnom pogledu te nakon pronalaska GeoKiss-a odmoriti na klupicama u parku.

 

St. James's Park was arranged in 2011 at the base of the parish Church of St. James from the 18th century. A popular sight is the statue of St. James, the patron saint of Jadranovo. According to a legend, the sailors who sailed here had found a wooden statue of St. James in the sea, pulled it out of the sea and threw it into the fire to keep warm. As the statue would not burn, they threw it back into the sea, but their boat sank immediately afterwards. Some people found the statue and brought it to Drivenik, but a strong hailstorm caused great damage to the crops, so they concluded that they should bring the statue back to where they had found it. The statue was then returned to Jadranovo, but the hailstorm struck there, too. The only place that was spared was the area around the small house in which they found shelter, so they decided to keep St. James's statue at this very location. It was an old house that was subsequently reconstructed into a chapel, and located on the site of today's Church of St. James.

Access: The park is located near the Church of St. James. You can reach it by car, and then stretch your legs and go down the stairs to the park. At this GeoKiss location, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery and, after you find the GeoKiss, rest on the benches in the park.

 

Sretno traženje!

Happy hunting!

:)
