A castle and tower surrounded by walls form the core of Trogir. Trogir is a real town museum and a wonderful destination to visit, emerge yourself in the past, walk the narrow streets and enjoy the stone facades, the old portal, and various carved motifs.
In the period from the 13th to the 15th century, the artistic, social and economic power of Trogir was at its peak. It is a time of great prosperity when the city walls, cathedrals, monasteries and palaces are being built by famous artists Nikola of Florence, Andrija Aleši and Ivan Duknović. The most beautiful part of Trogir is the town square where the St. Lawrence cathedral with a magnificent portal of Master Radovan, the communal renaissance palace, church of St. Sebastian, the town loggia from the 14 century, and small and large palaces from the 15th century of the noble family Ćipiko are located.
