Abstract
The presentation contains overview of the 7 altars which are located in the church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary from 16.-th century in Sutivan on the island of Brač. The church is situated on the north side of the island near the sea which caused the damage on altars due to harmful soluble salts and dust that are brought by northern wind. Mostly the damage on altars is similar on each one, such as the scattering of stone due the presence of salt, missing parts of marquetry, separation of architectural parts and impurities.
