Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik has served as a maritime trading centre on Croatia’s Adriatic coast since the Middle Ages. Once the Republic of Ragusa, the city preserved its autonomy through diplomacy and seaborne commerce until the republic was abolished in 1808. Limestone walls enclose the UNESCO-listed Old City, where the broad Stradun runs between Pile Gate and the old harbour. Baroque churches, palaces and fountains reflect the rebuilding that followed the 1667 earthquake, while Fort Lovrijenac rises from a rocky promontory west of the walls.
