Šibenik

The historic town of
Sibenik, connected with the expansion and
development of the early Croatian state, is rich in
cultural and historical monuments. The most
representative among them is the famous Cathedral of
Sibenik, one of the most original architectural
projects of the late Middle Ages, primarily linked
to the local master Juraj Matejev Dalmatinac (George
of Dalmatia). Sibenik is today a tourist centre
situated in the area where the best-indented
archipelago in Europe (Islands of Kornati) and karst
hydrographical phenomena (Skradinski Buk, Visovac,
Roski Waterfall) merge into the ecologically and
aesthetically most attractive tourist and
recreational zone on the Croatian Adriatic.
sibenik is the
birthplace of one of the greatest world basketball
players Drazen Petrovic. |
