Summary/Abstract: Although the phenomenon of the cult of the Blessed Virgin Mary is notably present in Croatian Christian traditional and maritime culture, its affirmation on the island of Vis has remained in the shadow of other Mariological research. This paper aims to analyze the occurrence of the Marian cult on the island of Vis in the ethnological and cultural anthropological context to reconnoite the cult of Our Lady in the Vis area, including historical sources and own field notes from 2018 to 2020, which will testify to centuries-old dynamic roots of the cult of Our Lady on the island of Vis, imposing itself as an indispensable and valuable component of Croatian cultural heritage.
