Krk

Built around a sheltered harbour on the island of Krk, Krk grew into the island’s historic administrative centre. It occupies the island’s western Adriatic shore, facing the waters of Kvarner Bay, where boats and waterfront promenades link the old core with the coast. Stone fortifications still enclose much of the centre, while Frankopan Castle recalls the Croatian noble family that ruled Krk for centuries during the Middle Ages. The Cathedral of the Assumption, with its bell tower, anchors the old town among narrow lanes and small squares. Beyond the walls, the island continues with rocky coves, olive groves and dry-stone terrain typical of the northern Adriatic.
