STRADUN
This pedestrian street is the starting point for all your adventures in the Old Town. It sums up Dubrovnik for 300 m!
The main artery of the city, also called Placa, starts from the Pile Gate and stretches almost 300 m long to the Clock Tower and the Ploče Gate. The Stradun was built in the 12th century on the small stream and muddy ground that separated the two former settlements, the Slavic Dubrava and the Roman Ragusa. The street was paved in 1468 and rebuilt after the great earthquake of 1667. The pavement polished by the ages is lined with houses (17th century), which respect the same urban plan, giving a great unity in this historical axis.

A faire de préférence de bonne heure le matin ou après 19 h, quand les croisiéristes sont remontés à bord de leurs palaces flotants.
