SVETI FILIP I JAKOV, a small town on the coast of the Pasman Channel, 3 km northwest of Biograd na Moru. Chief occupations include farming, viniculture, vegetable growing and tourism. Sveti Filip i Jakov lies on the regional road (M2, E65). In the period before the Turkish raids, the town was a harbour of the Benedictine monastery in Rogov, the ruins of which, with the preserved early Romanesque church of St. Roch (St. Rocco) stand to the northeast of the town.
The present town was founded after the Turks had withdrawn in the 17th and the 18th centuries. The 18th-century church of St. Michael is a reconstructed Gothic structure, from which the inscription and the coat of arms of the Rogov abbot Petar Zadranin (second half of the 14th c.) originate. The church has a monumental wooden crucifix dating back to the end of the 14th century.
