Top notch gifts that are authentic and traditional Croatian! The woman who was in there was really great and helpful and told us all about the history of the products, really interesting.
What a very cool fort! Well worth the price of admission and the walk up the stairs. You definitely get some great views of the old town and of the Adriatic Sea. If you are a fan of Game of Thrones, this is a must visit.
Expensive gift shop built into the city wall. Better quality and selection than many of the other tourist shops in the area. Worth a look around. Some nice artworks.
Lovely gentleman owner who lived through and survived the Yugoslavia war of independence in 1991/2. He’s refurbished and reopened his art gallery and is still there now, at 87 years young. He’s still campaigning for freedom & tolerance. Bought a large signed print of the mural that had been on the back wall of his gallery before fire destroyed it.
Places I love to wander the city walls of the medievial town of #Dubrovnik in the former home of my Grandfather, #Croatia #endlessroaming #travel #photography #Photos
Was fine, not the best, employees are following you everywhere and than they start to talk with each others. No directions so you have no idea where you are and if is something upstairs or not also some parts closed. So we have no idea if we even saw everything.
Amazing architecture and collection of art and other historical items. It was well worth the admission price. It was a nice break from the rainy day that we were having.
One of the most beautiful sacral buildings in Dubrovnik, the present-day Church of St Blaise,as constructed in 1715 in the flamboyant Venetian Baroque style. It was constructed by the Venetian master Marino Gropelli in 1706, on the commission of the Dubrovnik Senate which requested a new church on the site of the old 14th century Romanesque church.
St Blaise has been honoured as the patron saint of Dubrovnik from the 10th century. According to the chroniclers of Dubrovnik, St Blaise saved the people of Dubrovnik in the 10th century when the Venetians anchored their ships in Gruž and in front of the Island of Lokrum. The people of Dubrovnik believed the However, St Blaise revealed their intentions to the parish priest Stojko and thus saved the City from the night attack. The priest described him as an old grey-haired man with a long beard, a bishops cap and a stick in his hand. Precisely the way his statues on the city walls and towers look like.
The Franciscan Monastery and Church are located next to the church of St. Saviour near Onofrio's Fountain. The construction of the complex began in 1317 and works lasted for the whole 14th Century. According to legend, Francis of Assisi visited Dubrovnik on his world travels at the start of the 13th Century and it's since then that the Franciscans have worked in Dubrovnik.The Franciscan Monastery is famous across the world for its pharmacy which is the oldest working pharmacy in the world. When it began working in 1317, it was the third oldest in the world after Baghdad's and Padua's. Both of those pharmacies have stopped operating as pharmacies since, whie the Franciscan one in Dubrovnik still works today. The Franciscan Monastery houses a museum that is open every day.
