Landmarks
Dražen Petrović Memorial Court
Šibenik’s most famous sporting son, Dražen Petrović, is
well remembered here. In Baldekin, a part of this coastal
town, alongside a memorial centre, you’ll find a court
dedicated to this former NBA great.QBaldekin.
Dražen’s Golf 1
The old white Volkswagen Golf Mk1 once owned by
Dražen Petrović, dubbed as the best Croatian and Euro-
pean basketballer of all time and NBA star, whose young
life was taken in a fatal car accident 24 years ago, has finally
been placed where it belongs – beneath his Memorial
centre at ‘Baldekin’, and this is where it will remain in the
future. There too is a monument of Petrović which helps
keep his memory alive! Pay a tribute…
Juraj Dalmatinac
The great Zadar-born stonemason was resident in Šibenik
from 1441 until his death over three decades later, despite
long absences working in Split, Dubrovnik, Ancona and
elsewhere. Šibenik folk regard him with justification as a
local, and this statue on the square outside the Cathedral
is very much a statement of municipal patriotism as well as
a mark of respect for a great architect.QD‑3/4, Trg Repub-
like Hrvatske.
Petar Krešimir IV (1058-1074)
King Petar Krešimir spent Christmas 1066 here and wrote
a proclamation in which Šibenik was mentioned by name,
the first ever historical document that did so. For this rea-
son, he’s regarded as something of a founding father by
the locals.QG‑3, Perivoj Robert Visiani.
Town Hall (Gradska vijećnica)
Running along one side of the square opposite the Cathe-
dral, this 16th-century Renaissance structure was almost
totally destroyed by allied bombing in 1943, and substan-
tially rebuilt in the aftermath. The beautifully proportioned
colonnaded loggia now houses the Vijećnica café-restau-
rant, and also forms the backdrop to many of the events
comprising the annual Šibenik Children’s Festival.QD‑3,

Civitas Sacra
Interpretation Centre of St. James’ Cathedral (Interpretacijski centar katedrale
svetog Jakova)
Civitas Sacra – The Holy City programme, was developed in collaboration between the town of Šibenik, its tourist
board, as well as the diocese. At its centre is the Cathedral of St. James, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the recently
renovated Galbiani Palace. With tourism in mind, this programme will look to create new jobs as well as extend the
regional tourist season past the traditional summer months.
Co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund, Civitas Sacra sees the now-open interpretive centre of
the cathedral, while the interior of the palace has been conceived as a modern, multimedia presentation of the
cultural and historical heritage of Šibenik, throughout the ages.QIvana Pribislavića 3. Open 08:30-21:00. 50/25kn,

Šibenik Surroundings
Kaprije
Named after the locally abundant caper (kapar in Croa-
tian), Kaprije is a blissfully unspoiled island with no roads
and hardly any motor vehicles of any sort (officially it’s a
car free island, although there are a few old wrecks dot-
ted around the place that got here somehow). The small
village of Kaprije caters for the hundred-or-so permanent
inhabitants. Private rooms and apartments cater for a sum-
mer influx of tourists, although the island is never in dan-
ger of being overrun. Kaprije’s uniquely sheltered bay is an
increasingly popular anchor-dropping point for yachtsfolk
exploring the nearby Kornati, while the island’s numerous
coves are ideal for a spot of secretive bathing.
Krapanj
Lying only 300 metres off the shore of Brodarica, the
low-lying island of Krapanj was once famous for being
the centre of the Adriatic sponge industry, with most
of the island’s male population devoting their time to
sponge-diving. Nowadays Krapanj is a relatively quiet but
undoubtedly attractive spot, with a line of stone houses
along the mainland-facing waterfront, and a handful of
souvenir shops selling sponge-themed gifts.
Slightly inland from the shoreline is the Franciscan
Monastery, founded in 1435 when monks from Bosnia
were gifted the island by local nobles. The monastery
museum contains religious artworks, including an ex-
traordinarily expressive 15th-century crucifix carved by
Split-based priest Juraj Petrović. The walled graveyard
next door contains several family tombs honouring one-
time sponge divers, many pictured in relief form wearing
their large spherical deep-sea helmets. Head to the base-
ment of the nearby Hotel Spongiola to find a small but
entertaining display of exhibits connected with the local
sponge-harvesting industry, including a lead-booted
diving suit, and early 20th-century air pumps. Qwww.
tz-brodarica.hr.
Prvić
In many ways Prvić is a smaller version of Zlarin, a verdant
and unspoiled island with plenty in the way of traditional
Mediterranean architecture. It has two main settlements
- Prvić Luka at the eastern end, and Šepurine at the west
- Prvić has a slightly larger permanent population and is
marginally more lively as a result. Prvić was traditionally
the summer retreat of Šibenik’s leading families, and re-
mains associated with one great Šibenik name in particular
- priest, diplomat and scientist Faust Vrančić (1551-1617).
Vrančić was buried in Prvić Luka’s parish church. Educated
in Padua, Vrančić served at the Habsburg court in Prague
before devoting himself to his writings. His Latin-Italian-
German-Hungarian-Croatian dictionary (published in
1595) was a landmark in Croatian language study. His more
famous Machinae Novae, published in Venice in 1615, con-
tains 49 copper-plate engravings of machines and inven-
tions, in conscious homage to the inventions of Leonardo
da Vinci published several decades earlier. Most famous
of the illustrations is Homo Volans, which pictures a man
descending through the air attached to a square canvas
parachute.
English clergyman and scientist John Wilkins, writing some
30 years later, claimed that Vrančić actually tested the para-
chute himself by jumping from the belfry of St Mark’s Ca-
thedral in Venice.
A narrow lane leads over the brow of a hill from Prvić Luka
to the island’s other settlement, Šepurine. A hive-like village went into decline due to depleted stocks, although at least

Rogoznica Tourist Board
Southernmost of Šibenik County’s seaside resorts is
Rogoznica, an attractive island village joined to the main-
land by a 100-metre-long bridge. With a huddle of stone
houses rising above a palm-splashed Riva, it’s an undeni-
ably attractive spot, and the Frapa marina on the opposite
side of the bay has made it a hugely popular destination
with the yachting crowd. Situated on the western fringe of
the village, Frapa is open to outsiders, with a central semi-
circular building holding restaurants, bars and a nightclub.
Just behind the marina is Zmajevo Oko (“Eye of the Drag-
on”), a crater-like salt-water lake surrounded by grey cliffs.
North of the marina is the Gradina peninsula, boasting a
significant stretch of pebble beach backed by dense pines.

Banovi dvori
Twelve kilometres inland from Tisno on a well-signed
country road, Banovi dvori serves up authentic local
culinary treats in a modern but nevertheless atmo-
spheric dining room with wooden ceiling beams,
stuffed animals above the bar, and an all-pervading
aroma of good cooking. Speciality of the house is
lamb or veal cooked under a peka, a metal lid covered
in glowing embers. These meals take two hours to pre-
pare, which is why it is a good idea to ring and reserve
early in the day - or risk going hungry. Accompanied
by potatoes baked in the same pot, the resulting meals
are wonderfully succulent and generously-portioned:

Jadrija
Poking out to sea on the western side of St Anthony’s
Channel, opposite the Fortress of St Nicholas, the Jadrija
peninsula is the site of Šibenik’s municipal lido. During
the summer months it can be reached via hourly taxi
boat from the Riva. Jadrija was laid out as the municipal
beach in 1921 by local benefactor Šime Grubišić Rovilo
(1856-1928), and it still has the appearance of an old-style
bathing resort, with concrete shoreline platforms and neat
functional rows of changing cubicles.
Rezalište
This is the newest beach on the block with a 500 me-
