The gothic Church of St Dominic used to stand west of the Land gate. The first Croatian university mentioned in 1396 was a part of the monastery.
The Forte Fortress
Situated east of the monumental Land gate, built in 1567 by the Venetian military commander Sforza Pallavicino. The fortress was separated from the city and from land by defensive moats.
The Edifice of the Zadar University
A former Institute of St. Dimitri with a chapel. It is a dominant point of Zadar panorama from the sea, a monumental building on the New waterfront built at the beginning of the 20th century in the Neo-classicist style for the purposes of the Institute of St. Dimitri.
The remains of the church of Stomorica
The floor plan of the church is fascinating: the five semicircular apses (typical of early Dalmatian church architecture) and the semicircular portal surrounding the central space give it an unusual six-leaved clover shape.
Rector’s palace
The Rector´s Palace was recorded in historic sources as early as the 13th century. The wall structure reveals Romanesque and Gothic layers from the Middle Ages.
Grisogono-Vovo´s Palace
The Grisogono family is one of the oldest in the history of Zadar. Federico Grisogono, the Renaissance scholar who was also involved in music, descended from one branch of the family.
Saint Chrysogonus church
A three-nave basilica with a lavishly decorated semicircular apse, in the Romanesque style, was named after Saint Chrysogonus the martyr, a patron saint of Zadar.
The City Walls and Gates of Zadar
Once the largest city-fortress in the entire Republic of Venice, Zadar’s walls allowed it to retain more of its independence than most of its neighbouring cities, and meant that it was never captured by the Turks.
