Rubbing the toe of the Grgur Ninski statue for luck
If you have ever visited Split then you have most likely rubbed the big toe of the statue of Grgur Ninski (Gregory of Nin) for good luck.
But not many people know that you can also rub the big toe of the statue of Grgur Ninski for good luck in two other places in Croatia. But first, a bit more about Grgur Ninski.
Who was he?
Grgur was the bishop of the Croatian town of Nin from 900-929. He was the head of Nin Church which at that time meant being the head of the whole Croatian Church and he was under the strong protection at the time of King Tomislav of Croatia.
