Dominican Monastery in Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik is home to a number of historical and cultural monuments. It’s most famous is of course the city walls, which draw thousands and thousands of visitors every year. Another great landmark is the Dominican Monastery in Dubrovnik, pictured above. Construction first began on the monastery back in 1301. Today, the monastery functions as a museum, where visitors can view a rich array of religious paintings, artifacts, jewelry and other items from Dubrovnik’s grandiose past.
