To the south of Vinkovci, on the right side of the road to Rokovci, the Rokovci Walls are situated. These consist of the portal and part of the walls of the church which was closer to the former Rokovci and around which there was a graveyard. Somewhat to the north, in 1415, Franjo Koracski built a Franciscan monastery, located by ploughing of the wrecked foundations. The church dedicated to St. Rok was a monumental single-nave construction with a semicircular apse. It was built in a decadent Romanesque style with traces of partitions from the time of the late Gothic. Thus its original construction can be placed in the 13th century, and Gothic modifications are positively connected with the time of the construction of the monastery in the 15th century. There was a graveyard around it, which was used by the inhabitants of Rokovci until the 18 th century.
