Dubrovnik Walking Tour
The historical centre of Dubrovnik is a UNESCO World Heritage site, where more than a thousand years of history coexist with the present. On this tour, we walk through the streets and alleys of the historical centre of Dubrovnik, where we view all the well-known and some lesser-known sights. Each sight opens a topic, where we cover the past and the present of life in Dubrovnik.
Meeting Point
the Amerling Fountain on the Brsalje Square, near the Pile (Western) Gate of the Old City
Brsalje Square
The tour starts at the Brsalje Square, near the Pile (Western) Gate of the Old City. In a brief outline of the city’s history, we go through the most important distant and recent events. The Brsalje Square is also the place from where the Walls of Dubrovnik can be well observed.
Large Onofrio's Fountain
Continuing through the Pile Gate to the Large Onofrio’s Fountain – the monument of the elaborate 15th century water supply system. Near the fountain is the 14th century Gothic Franciscan Monastery with one of the oldest pharmacies in Europe.
Stradun
We proceed along the main street of the city – Stradun, that was formed by unification of a southern Latin and a northern Slavic settlement, both of which were founded in the 7th century.
Rupe Granary
To explore more quiet alleys of Dubrovnik, all of which carry some interesting stories, we turn southwards, towards the old Dubrovnik’s granary.
Jesuit Church
Reaching the 18th Century Jesuit Church and its broad stairs, we may make a short visit to the church to view its Baroque-style artwork. Down the Jesuit stairs is the Ivan Gundulić Square with the local agricultural products in display at the square’s farmers’ market.
Cathedral and Rector's Palace
We approach the Dubrovnik Cathedral, rebuilt after the devastating 17th century earthquake, as well as the Rector’s Palace, the seat of government of the 14th-19th century Republic of Dubrovnik.
Old Port of Dubrovnik
From the old port of Dubrovnik for more than a millennium, ships used to embark on their voyages to engage in maritime trade. Nearby is a building complex that in older times served as a quarantine area.
Luža Square
At the end of our tour, we arrive to the central part of the city – the Luža square with its many sights – the St. Blaise Church, the Orlando Column, the Sponza Palace, the clocktower and the City Hall.
