Dubrovnik is a city in southern Croatia fronting the Adriatic Sea. It's known for its distinctive Old Town, encircled with massive stone walls completed in the 16th century. Its well-preserved buildings range from baroque St. Blaise Church to Renaissance Sponza Palace and Gothic Rector’s Palace, now a history museum. Paved with limestone, the pedestrianized Stradun (or Placa) is lined with shops and restaurants.

Stradun (pronunciado strǎduːn) o Placa (Stradone o Corso) es la calle principal de Dubrovnik, Croacia. Está pavimentada con caliza, tiene una longitud de unos 300 metros y discurre por la Ciudad Vieja, la zona histórica de la ciudad rodeada por las Murallas de Dubrovnik.

La ubicación de la actual calle era un canal pantanoso que separaba Ragusa (antiguo nombre de Dubrovnik) del asentamiento forestal de Dubrava, antes de que fuera saneado en el siglo XIII. Stradun discurre a través de la ciudad amurallada en dirección este-oeste, conectando la entrada oeste llamada "Puerta de Pile" (Vrata od Pila) con la "Puerta de Ploče" (Vrata od Ploča) en el este. Ambos extremos están decorados con fuentes del siglo XV (la llamada Gran Fuente de Onofrio en el oeste y la Pequeña Fuente de Onofrio en el este) y campanarios (el Campanario de Dubrovnik en el este y el campanario del monasterio franciscano en el oeste).

Stradun se convirtió en la calle principal de la ciudad en el siglo XIII, y su apariencia actual se creó, en su mayor parte, tras el devastador terremoto de 1667, en el que se destruyeron la mayoría de los edificios de Ragusa. Antes del terremoto, las casas de la calle no estaban diseñadas tan uniformemente como en la actualidad, y la mayoría de ellos tenían arcadas y decoraciones elaboradas. Tras el terremoto de 1667 y el gran fuego que se desató inmediatamente después, la República de Ragusa aprobó una ley que especificaba el diseño de todos los futuros edificios residenciales construidos en la ciudad.

Debido a esto, todas las casas del siglo XVII de Stradun tienen el mismo diseño: la planta baja siempre albergaba una tienda, con una entrada por la calle con una puerta y una ventana en un mismo marco, bajo un arco semicircular (durante el día la puerta estaba cerrada y los bienes se entregaban al cliente sobre el alféizar, que funcionaba como mostrador), y un almacén en la parte trasera con una entrada separada por un callejón. La primera planta estaba reservada para la sala de estar y la segunda planta tenía varias habitaciones, mientras que la cocina se situaba siempre en el ático encima de la segunda planta, para evitar la propagación de posibles incendios.

Luego de la caída del Imperio Austro-Hungaro en 1918 y el término de la Primera Guerra Mundial y la entrada de Dubrovnik a formar parte del Reino de los Serbios, Croatas y Eslovenos, en 1921 paso a tomar el nombre de placa (plaza) rey Pedro ( kralj Pero) en honor a Pedro I rey de Serbia, llamado el libertador, de lo que sería luego la primera Yugoslavia .

En los últimos tiempos, Stradun y algunos de los edificios cercanos fueron dañados en el bombardeo de mortero durante el Asedio de Dubrovnik en 1991–92, pero la mayor parte de los daños se han reparado desde entonces.

Croatia is a country in Southeast Europe. It borders Slovenia to the northwest, Hungary to the northeast, Serbia to the east, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Montenegro to the southeast, sharing a maritime border with Italy. Croatia was part of the former Yugoslavia. A population of 4 million, most of whom are Catholics. Zagreb is the capital. Balanced between the Balkans and Central Europe, this country has been passed between rival kingdoms, empires and republics for thousands of years. If there is an advantage to this ongoing disruption, it is in the rich cultural legacy each has left behind. From Venetian palaces, Napoleonic fortresses, Slavic churches, Viennese mansions to socialist sculptures. But most attraction is the coastline with the remarkable clarity of the water and white pebbly beach. Despite being the fastest rising holiday destination in Europe in the past decade, Croatia still doesn't feel overrun by tourists. There are long sandy and winding beaches too, perfect for lazy days. Croatia is a beautiful country to discover many different landscapes. Dubrovnik is according to many one of the most beautiful cities on the Adriatic coast. This city in Croatia is also called the Pearl of the Adriatic. The historic center, or rather the completely walled fortress city of Dubrovnik, is on the list of UNESCO World Heritage. This part is still in a remarkably good condition. A wonderful place to discover on foot, it is a city with a diverse, but also rough past. Remarkably, the Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque churches, as well as the various monasteries, palaces and fountains have been preserved. They all tell their own story from the Middle Ages.

Stradun / Placa - Dubrovnik / Ragusa - Dalmatia - Hrvatska / Croatia

Dubrovnik è una città della Croazia meridionale affacciata sul mare Adriatico. È rinomata per il centro storico caratteristico, circondato da imponenti mura in pietra costruite nel XVI secolo. La città possiede edifici ben conservati, tra cui la Chiesa di San Biagio in stile barocco, il Palazzo Sponza del periodo rinascimentale e il Palazzo dei Rettori in stile gotico, che oggi ospita il museo di storia. Lastricato con pietra calcarea, il corso pedonale noto come Stradun (o Placa) è pieno di negozi e ristoranti.

Views from The Stradun, Dubrovnik.Croatia

Stradun or Placa is the main street of Dubrovnik, Croatia. The limestone-paved pedestrian street runs some 300 metres through the Old Town, the historic part of the city surrounded by the Walls of Dubrovnik. Stradun became the city's main thoroughfare in the 13th century, and its current appearance was for the most part created following the devastating 1667 earthquake in which most of the buildings in Ragusa (as Dubrovnik was then called) were destroyed.

Dubrovnik is a city on the Adriatic Sea in southern Croatia. It is one of the most prominent tourist destinations in the Mediterranean Sea. The history of the city probably dates back to the 7th century. The city is completely surrounded by defensive walls and fortresses. Franciscan Church and Monastery is situated at the Placa, the main street of Dubrovnik. It's a large complex consists of a monastery, a church, a library and a pharmacy. This church is lovely inside. The library contains over 70,000 books.The earliest monastery was built in the 13th century. The monastery was built in 1360 in late Romanesque style. A beautiful cloister garden hidden away from the busy tourist places in Dubrovnik. Peaceful and silent despite being in the heart of the old city this is a tiny and unexpected oasis of green within historic architecture. Still a sacred place but with a small museum of artefacts and paintings. The pharmacy dates from 1317 and is the oldest still functioning pharmacy in the Europe Photo of Kanitha taken from the city walls of Dubrovnik.

Het is een groot complex dat bestaat uit een klooster, een kerk, een bibliotheek en een apotheek. Deze kerk is prachtig van binnen. De bibliotheek bevat meer dan 70.000 boeken. Het eerste klooster werd gebouwd in de 13e eeuw. Een prachtige kloostertuin verborgen weg van de drukke toeristenplaatsen in Dubrovnik. Vreedzaam en stil ondanks dat je in het hart van de oude stad bent. Het is een kleine en onverwachte oase van groen binnen de historische architectuur. Nog steeds een heilige plaats, maar met een klein museum van kunstvoorwerpen en schilderijen. De apotheek dateert uit 1317 en is de oudste nog functionerende apotheek in Europa.

Perpendiculares a esta vía principal surgen el resto de calles menores de la ciudad. Hacia el norte las calles crecen en pendiente, con eternas escalinatas, por su proximidad a la montaña de San Sergio, y hacia el sur conforman un entramado de pequeñas calles y callejuelas que acogen todo tipo de negocios pensados principalmente para satisfacer las necesidades de los turistas.

Dubrovnik is a city in southern Croatia fronting the Adriatic Sea. It's known for its distinctive Old Town, encircled with massive stone walls completed in the 16th century. Its well-preserved buildings range from baroque St. Blaise Church to Renaissance Sponza Palace and Gothic Rector’s Palace, now a history museum. Paved with limestone, the pedestrianized Stradun (or Placa) is lined with shops and restaurants.

Walking from Stradun to the Cathedral, you’re bound to pass by the bronze statue of the writer Marin Držić. Lovingly called En marchant de Stradun à la cathédrale, vous passerez forcément devant la statue en bronze de l'écrivain Marin Držić. Amoureusement appelé le Shakespeare de Dubrovnik, il est aujourd'hui surtout connu pour ses comédies qui mettent en lumière les réalités sociales de l'époque de la Renaissance. La statue est l'œuvre de l'éminent sculpteur croate Ivan Meštrović. Notez le trou de balle dans son cou.

 

Les taches brillantes de la statue sont le résultat d'une tendance à frotter son nez (considérable) pour lui porter chance et à prendre des photos assis sur ses genoux, mais attention : cette coutume est mal vue par les aficionados du patrimoine local.

 

Dubrovnik's Shakespeare, he is today best known for his comedies which shed a light onto the social realities of the Renaissance period. The statue is the work of Croatia’s eminent sculptor Ivan Meštrović. Note the bullet hole in his neck.

 

The statue’s shiny spots are the result of a trend for rubbing its (considerable) nose for good luck and taking photos seated in the lap, but beware: the custom is frowned upon by local heritage aficionados.

Designed by the famous Italian master and hydroengineer from Naples, Onofrio della Cava in 1438, the Small Onofrio Fountain bears witness to the far sighted politics of the Ragusan commune. Put up on the eastern part of Placa (Stradun), in celebration of the completion of construction of public water supply via an aqueduct to provide clean, cold water from the Dubrovnik River (Rijeka Dubrovacka) almost 7 miles away, and to serve at the same time as a point where medieval visitors could wash away the possibility of carrying plaque into the city before they entered (its prophylactic efficacy questionable though), this construction was a masterpiece of that time. The stone-mason works were completed by the sculptor Pietro di Martino of Milan. The relieves, nude baby-boys and the water openings in a form of masked faces, or Maskerons, reveal the influence of Renaissance, although with reminiscences of Gothic style… a true gem and the masterpiece of sculptural achievement in Dubrovnik, today provides relief to the thirsty and remains a popular meeting spot for Dubrovnik's young people and one ot its greatest landmarks...

Dubrovnik, Croatia

 

Stradun (pronounced [strǎduːn]) or Placa (Stradone or Corso) is the main street of Dubrovnik, Croatia. The limestone-paved pedestrian street runs some 300 metres through the Old Town, the historic part of the city surrounded by the Walls of Dubrovnik.

 

The site of the present-day street used to be a marshy channel which separated Ragusa from the forest settlement of Dubrava before it was reclaimed in the 13th century.[3] Stradun stretches through the walled town in the east-west direction, connecting the western entrance called the "Pile Gate" (Vrata od Pila) to the "Ploče Gate" (Vrata od Ploča) on the eastern end. Both ends are also marked with 15th-century fountains (the so-called Large Onofrio's Fountain in the western section and the Small Onofrio's Fountain on the east end) and bell towers (the Dubrovnik Bell Tower to the east end and the bell tower attached to the Franciscan monastery to the west).
