Arch of the Sergii is an Ancient Roman triumphal arch located in Pula, Croatia. The arch commemorates three members of the Sergii family, specifically Lucius Sergius Lepidus, a tribune serving in the twenty-ninth legion that participated in the Battle of Actium and disbanded in 27 BC. This suggests an approximate date of construction: 29–27 BC. The arch stood behind the original naval gate of the early Roman colony. The Sergii were a powerful family of officials in the colony and retained their power for centuries.

Premantura is a small village in the municipality of Medulin-Medolino in Istria, on the southernmost tip of the Istrian Peninsula, just south of the city of Pula-Pola. A short distance from Premantura-Promontore is Cape Kamenjak-Capo Promontore – a small peninsula consisting of more than 30 km of coastline with several coves and beaches.
In the southernmost part of Istria, on a sliver of land surrounded by the sea, and perched on the top of a hill, there lies a small and ancient village. It had been called Promontorium Polaticum first, then Promontore and finally Premantura-Promontore. Throughout history Premantura-Promontore and Kamenjak have been exposed to constant changes of government due to the importance and uniqueness of its position. In the 20th century, the inhabitants of Premantura-Promontore had lived through six different political regimes or states. The inhabitants of Premantura-Promontore became famous for their ample to catch of a very delicious type of crab. Premantura-Promontore is naturally connected with the Cape Kamenjak – a small peninsula which was, due to its exceptional beauty and variety of plants and animal species, declared a protected area back in 1996. Kamenjak peninsula is 3400 m long, wide between 500 and 1200 m and includes 30 km of coastline, beautiful bays and beaches, many protected and endemic plant and animal species such as: endemic orchids, butterflies, Mediterranean monk seal, crabs and more.

The Basilica of Santa Maria del Canneto, or Santa Maria Formosa, was a sixth-century Byzantine church. It was erected in Pola under the patronage of Maximianus, bishop of Ravenna. The structure was damaged at the time of the Venetian sack of Pola in 1243, and building material was subsequently taken from the ruins and primarily incorporated into the Marciana Library and the Basilica of Saint Mark in Venice. Of the large, triple-nave church, comparable in splendour to the Euphrasian Basilica in Parenzo, only one of the lateral chapels survives. It constitutes the sole construction in Pola dating to the Byzantine period.
