Pay the small fee and go through the small parish museum as it provides access to the interior of the church.

A lovely Baroque church, offering a small reliquary and the chance to see the original Roman foundations from the 1st/2nd century AD in the basement. There's detailed information on restoration and conservation of the church and its artifacts, but all the text is in Slovene. The church itself is less ornate than many of the Baroque period, which gives it a sense of peaceful calm. One of the main pieces of art is a large wooden statue, The Crucified from Piran, which has a fascinating history. The minimal cost (€1) was well worth the visit.

Definitely worth the hike up the hill to see the town laid out below. If you can muster the strength, it's well worth the 1 EU to climb the rickety stairs to the top of the bell tower. The walk up is a bit dicey and not for the claustrophobic, but once up you can get stunning views of the Adriatic. Just be sure to pug your ears before the bells go off on the quarter.

Lovely church on top of a hill. You can pay a little to go round or take a sneak look through the back door. Beautifully cared for and calm.

From the outside, the Church of St. George is nothing special, but its setting is spectacular and its interior is stunning. For us, though, the best part is the bell tower. The climb up on uneven wood stairs is quite easy. The reward is spectacular views. To the west past the church are the orange tiled roofs and the bright blue water of the Adriatic. To the south are Tartini Square and the small boat harbor. And, to the east are the ancient town walls. Just being in the tower itself is a pleasure with its old, chipped bells. Just be careful to plug your ears when they chime. The sound up close is deafening.

Perched high above Tartini Square, the Church of St. George's bell tower lures visitors up from the town center. After paying your admittance fee, you can climb to the top of the bell tower on rickety, narrow, uneven steps - which makes this even more of a fun adventure. The bells in the tower chime every 15 minutes and on the hours, so either time your climb up and down so that you avoid the deafening sound or are there to enjoy the musical magic. The views from the top of the tower down to Tartini Square and the Adriatic are simply stunning.

Yes, another baroque church - unprepossessing from the outside (bar the wonderful location). But once inside - a different world. The collection of parish gold and silver, including an amazing statuette of St George and the dragon, a monstrance, and a reliquary bone from the leg of aforementioned saint, were all gorgeous. The medieval wooden carving of the 'crucified of Piran' was deeply moving. The church itself, lovingly restored, still serves as a place of worship, and is alive with the Spirit. The architectural history of the location is revealed under the church - from pre-Roman to Middle Ages.

The clocktower does not seem to be very well maintained, and one can't help but feel whether the stairs that one has to climb are actually safe, as well as numerous instances of vandalism and graffiti, however the view at the top is well worth the climb, giving one a bird's eye view of the beautiful and magical town of Piran from all directions. Truly, on a sunny day, the view from the top of the tower across the Piran peninsula is one of the best panoramas of Slovenia and perhaps of the Mediterranean itself.

We took a 'free' bus from Portoroz to the picturesque medieval town of Piran, but realized later that we could easily have walked..It was wonderful to stroll through the main square (called 'Tartini square', after the famous violinist) of Piran on a bright, sunny summer afternoon. The town has a long history dating backing to the Romans.The main attraction of the city is the church which is situated on the highest point- about 15-20 mins walk from the square. And then climb up the steps (after paying one euro at the turnstile) for some spectacular views.. The coastlines of Slovenia, Croatia and Italy are seen, as are the orange roofs in the town and square of Piran.. Great photo opportunity.. The climb is invigorating, the air fresh, and the views magnificent. We did not go into the church, but this was good enough for us..
