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.
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.
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.
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.
