Tour in Trogir
Description:
Trogir is 20 km from Split and is worth seeing. In Trogir every summer, famous faces rest because it is a charming, hidden, Mediterranean city that looks like a castle on the sea. Although its central part is only 750 steps, it is a folding stone town with a rich history. The territory of the old town of Trogir was included in the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List in 1997.
First we will look at the Cathedral of St. Lawrence of Rome, we in Trogir say - St. Lovre. Entrance ticket costs 3 EUR. It is the largest building of the old town with a high bell tower and its famous portal is made by the hand of the master Radovan in 1240. This was the time when the Tatars wanted to capture Trogir and Dalmatia and when some of them first saw the sea. Then we will visit the city hall and the Renaissance lodge. We will see how the courtroom looked in the 15th century, which today is inside St. Sebastian and where the oldest church in Trogir is the Church of St. Barbara (9th-11th centuries).
Venetians were here from the 15th to the 18th century, because of this, the whole Trogir resembles Venice. We will try to find in this labyrinth of streets and in the courtyards of the Trogir palaces some forgotten Venetian lion, winged, with or without an open book. Do you know what a Venetian lion is with an open book and what a closed book is? We will. We're waiting for St. John's. Nicholas, which contains the famous relief of the ancient god Kairos (the god of luck and the youngest of Zeus’ children) of the 4th century, which appears once in a lifetime and gives a person the opportunity to “grab him by a strand of hair.” Don't miss it! We will look at the two entrances to the city, walk along the fabulous promenade, see the Dominican monastery where the monument to our bishop Augustine Kajotic, who was a guide to Dante Alighieri in the 14th century in Croatia.
All these courtyards inside the palaces in Trogir, it's just a beauty.
Next we will find the fortress of Camerlengo, where we can go if you want. Entrance ticket costs about 4 EUR. The walls and tower of the citadel from the 15th century, which are perfectly preserved and from where a beautiful view of the city.
At the end, try the most delicious ice cream in Dalmatia and the famous Trogir rafioli, look at the photos. The secret is figs and almonds! And Trogir!
