We must mention that due to the fact that the Old Town is on UNESCO World Heritage List, every construction work in the Old Town is a subject to strict control, rules and guidelines. The aim is to preserve the look of the Old Town’s buildings and streets, and its general appearance as much as possible, savouring its history and marvellous architecture. Therefore, there are no lifts in our buildings.
The history of Dubrovnik dates back to the 7th century, while the area was inhabited before that.
Dubrovnik Old Town, a historical centre of Dubrovnik, is a unique place to visit – with its city walls 1940 meters long with 6 fortresses, with Stradun – its main street and its side streets, buildings, monuments, famous Dubrovnik’s rooftops…which all bring to life the spirit of famous Republic of Ragusa (The Dubrovnik Republic). The Dubrovnik Republic was established in 1358, and lasted for almost 500 years. It was one of the strongest maritime trade forces of its time.
Maybe not everything in the Old Town is authentic due to the changes our time has brought to us, but the stone buildings, streets, churches, museums… they have all kept, with enormous human effort, their facades identical to those of past times. Of course, for example, the interior of churches has been preserved to the extent it could be preserved. Much of the Old Town was ruined in the big earthquake in 1667, but it rose again. It only shows the incredible will and strength of its citizens to save their city. That spirit lives on.
Dubrovnik Old Town was inscribed on UNESCO World Heritage List in 1979. years.
