Herceg Novi Municipality has served as a cultural crossroads within Montenegro since the late Middle Ages. At the entrance to the Bay of Kotor, its narrow Adriatic coast rises quickly toward the Orjen massif and the Croatian border. Herceg Novi was founded in 1382 and passed through several regional powers; that layered past remains visible in the stepped old town, the Forte Mare and Kanli Kula fortresses, and Savina Monastery. Promenades, small beaches and a maritime character define the shore, while the inland terrain is markedly more rugged.
