Allegedly built in the 7th century, Saint Ivan Church remains a landmark of the town's historic center. Admire the exterior of the Catholic church, reconstructed many times and known for its distinctive bell tower. Step inside to light some candles, attend a service, or simply view the colorful glass mosaic that adorns the altar wall. Photography is not allowed inside the church.

There are only a handful of churches in Budva Old Town. Highly recommend. This is one of the main churches. Free to enter. I had a guide with me which was very helpful.

One of the few Montenegro churches you can actually get in. It is quite simple and has just a set of icons to see. But the mosaics style of the altar wall is unusual and could be worth paying this church a visit. Especially with a free entrance.
