The Romanesque wooden crucifixes from the 12th and 13th centuries. The most beautiful is the one found in Motovun, dating from the 13th century. Probably only a little older example is the crucifix from Galižana which wooden core is its only visible part. The third crucifix is from the Poreč cathedral and it was also made in the 13th c. Later transformed, probably during the 14th and 15th centuries, to adapt to the new Gothic iconographic fashion as seen in the panels put up after the research and the restoration in the late 20th c. displaying the reconstruction of the original appearance as well as restoration data.
