Gospin otok, najstarije marijansko svetište u Hrvata, opkoljen rukavcima rijeke Jadro, u srednjem vijeku postaje prvo naselje Hrvata. Na Otoku je u X. stoljeću na mjestu današnjeg crkve sv.Marije, Gospe od otoka (1880.), hrvatska kraljica Jelena sagradila je dvije crkve, Blažene Djevice Marije i svetoga Stjepana. Ovo svetište je 1998. svetište je pohodio i Sv. Otac Papa Ivan Pavao II., poslavši poruku Solinjanima "Čuvajte blago vjere koje vam je povijest povjerila!". Pokraj župne crkve posvećene sv. Mariji, nalazi se izuzetno vrijedan arheološki lokalitet, danas čitav pod zemljom. Uz samo svetište prostire se uređeni travnjak, koji svojim jednostavnim hortikulturnim stilom uređenja poziva na suživot građana s tim prostorom kojim iz dana u dan odzvanjanju dječji povici, smijeh mladih i pjesma vjernika.
In the very centre of Salona, on a river islet (Gospin otok – Our Lady’s Islet) in the delta of Salona’s river Salon, now known as the Jadro, next to the parish church of St. Mary, Our Lady of the Islet (Sv. Marija, Gospa od Otoka), there is an exceptionally valuable archaeological site, now totally covered with earth. The present parish church was built in 1880. To its south there is a grassy area where thousands of believers attended the mass on the occasion of the visit of Pope John Paul II, in 1998.
