Discover the historic centre of Trogir

The historic centre of Trogir is located on a small island between the mainland and the island of Čiovo. You can reach the car-free old town by crossing the bridges there. This place is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Here, you can stroll past remarkable buildings from the Romanesque, Gothic, and Renaissance periods.

In the central square of Trg Ivana Pavla II stands the 13th-century St. Lawrence Cathedral (Katedrala sv. Lovre). The richly ornate portal created by the sculptor, Radovan, is particularly remarkable. You can climb the bell tower for a spectacular view over the red roofs of the town and the surrounding sea. Then you can walk through the narrow streets along the historic Cipiko Palace to the Riva, the promenade of Trogir, known for its warm and friendly atmosphere. At the end of the promenade lies the 15th-century Kamerlengo Fortress, where you can look out over the harbour from the fortress walls. 

What local tips will make your visit to Trogir special?

With these three practical tips, you will discover the best spots to visit in the town:

1. Visit the early morning market: Just outside the historic centre are the daily vegetable and fruit market and the fish market (peškarija). Go early in the morning and discover local products, such as fresh figs, sheep cheese and honey. You can also buy fresh fish here to cook at the campsite, as long as the campsite has the facilities to allow this.
