Our Lady of the Rocks (Montenegrin: Госпа од Шкрпјела, Gospa od Škrpjela; Croatian: Gospa od Škrpjela) is one of the two islets off the coast of Perast in the Bay of Kotor, Montenegro (the other being Sveti Đorđe Island). It is an artificial island created by bulwark of rocks and by sinking old and seized ships loaded with rocks.[1] The Catholic Church of Our Lady of the Rocks is the largest building on the islet, and has a museum attached to it.
