Half Day

The story of Dubrovnik

We ascend to the top of Srdj Hill by cable car for incredible views of the city and the glittering turquoise of the Adriatic beyond. The nearby war museum is the perfect place to orient ourselves in our new surroundings as we explore exhibitions on the invasion of Croatia during the 1990s.

The cable car takes us back to the Ploce Gate, the eastern entrance to the old city where we wind through myriad streets surrounded by powder-white walls at every corner. We visit the 15th-century Rector’s Palace, the Church of St. Blaise, and the cathedral, all of which were built at the site of Dubrovnik’s old cathedral which was destroyed in the powerful earthquake of 1667. The columned courtyard of Sponza Palace beckons us inside where we marvel at elaborate stone carvings.

We’re mesmerized by visions of Croatia as it was 1,500 years ago in the 5D Visia Multimedia Museum. Exhibitions and presentations plunge us deep into the origins and founding of Dubrovnik. Take some time to soak up the old town before returning to the ship.
