Experience It! Dubrovnik A group of refugees from Epidaurus (today’s Cavtat) founded Dubrovnik in the

first half of the 7th century. After being under the protection of the Byzantine

Empire and falling under the sovereignty of Venice, Dubrovnik ruled itself as a free province known as the Republic of Dubrovnik, and flourished in the 15th

and 16th centuries to become Venice’s chief shipping rival. The beginning of the

end for the Republic arrived care of a devastating earthquake in 1667 that

claimed more than 5,000 citizens. The Republic met its official demise in 1808 when it was abolished and integrated into the Illyrian provinces after Napoleon’s

armies conquered the city. Since 1808, Dubrovnik has fallen under attack and

been occupied and annexed several times, most recently as part of the second Yugoslavia (1945-1991). Dubrovnik, however, has survived and continues to

reign as one of the most beautiful and fascinating cities on the entire Adriatic,

with its medieval walls that surround its old city, protecting the ancient buildings

contained within. This is Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage site unlike any other.
