THE ROMANTIC CITY OF TROGIR
Trogir was established by the Greek colonists from the Island of Vis in the 3rd century B.C. Upon this historical site lies the historical core of the Trogir Old Town, the best preserved Romantic-Gothic city in central Europe. The medieval Trogir Old Town, surrounded by walls, unites the well preserved castle and tower and numerous structure and palaces from the Romantic, Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque periods. The most significant structure is the Trogir Cathedral, with its portal of the west gates, a masterpiece by Radovan, the most significant example of Romantic-Gothic art in Croatia.
