Possible sundials

For many croatian sundials there is a lack of information or photographs in the catalog. For other sundials there are only indications of their existence. Below you can find a list of unconfirmed croatian sundials.

How can You help?

If you are in the vicinity of places from the list below, it would be helpfull if you could check if there really is a sundial and inform me by e-mail. If you can take a photograph of a sundial and the building, even better. The same applies if you stumble upon a sundial that is not on the list. Thank you.
