Additional Information

In the most safeguarded natural port, on the eastern coastline of the Adriatic Sea, lies the oldest indigenous Croatian city. This place likely marks the spot where the original Croatian settlers first glimpsed the azure sea.

Sibenik is characterized by its narrow meandering streets, rock-built houses, abundance of stairs, and remains of city walls that together create a romantic Mediterranean ambiance. The city’s most renowned structure is St. Jacob’s Cathedral. Its construction spanned a century, bearing witness to the perseverance, sacrifice, and faith of successive Sibenik generations.

It stands out not just in Croatian, but also in European architecture for a multitude of reasons. Built solely of stone without using any other materials, its bold design of stone slabs and ribs does not require any binding material. Its trefoil front facade sets it apart from other renaissance churches. Moreover, its architectural harmony is unparalleled.

  • Transportation with a family car (4+driver). If you are a family with children or a group of 4, but the size of the car suits you, feel free to go ahead with the booking.
