The palace faces the sea. An abundant garden and representative entry stairs are on one side. And «luzza» with three arches on the ground floor.
The centry-box and loop-holes face the hills.
The Bishops palace was built with stone from this place. The walls of the interior are painted by Tripo Kokolja.
