Stop 2 Pass by

The Rector’s Palace is a palace in the city of Dubrovnik that was the seat of the Rector of the Republic of Ragusa from the 14th century until 1808. It was also the seat of the smaller council and the state government. In addition, it housed an armory, a powder magazine, a guard house and a prison.

The Amerling Fountain in Dubrovnik is one of the finest works by Croatian sculptor Ivan Renditchi. It was installed in 1900 as a gift to the Amerling brothers’ hometown.

The four low-relief panels at the base of the monument depict the main episodes of Gundulić’s most important epic, Osman. Ivan Gundulić was born in 1589 in an old and respectable aristocratic family.

Stop 5

The natural starting point for a visit to Dubrovnik is this imposing city gate, built in 1537. Originally, there were only two entrances into the Dubrovnik old town. Pile Gate was the main one.

Stop 6 Pass by

The tower is located in Luža Square at the end of Stradun and is 31 metres high.

Stop 7

Sponza is one of the most beautiful palaces in the city, which has preserved its original form. Built between 1516 and 1522, its form is reminiscent of what most of Dubrovnik’s public and private palaces might have looked like before the earthquake of 1667. The Sponza Palace takes its name from the word for the place where rainwater was collected, in accordance with the former use of the site on which it was built.
