What you can expect

Stroll through the city of Korčula, surrounded by walls and towers that take your breath away. Admire the city's grid, preserved in its original herringbone pattern and positioned as if immersed in the Pelješac Channel.

Learn about the town's history, from the first written document mentioning the town being surrounded by walls in the 10th century to the oldest legal act in this part of Europe, The Statute of the Town and Island, in 1214.

Hear about the world's first traveller, Marko Polo, who took his first steps on its stone-paved streets. Discover how Korčula, at the crossroads of trade routes, made an influence on its surroundings, while, at the same time, adorning itself and transforming into an Adriatic Aphrodite.

See the three-aisled cathedral and the facade arranged by Marko Andrijić, which delivered the final touch of beauty and the defining vista of today's town.

Finally, see the plaque to the first Croatian king Tomislav (925), placed at the land entrance to the town for the anniversary of one thousand years of the Croatian kingdom, clearly reflecting the historical awareness of Korčulan people despite many occupations and claims through the course of history.
