Description

Klis Fortress: A Beacon of History and Heroism Your adventure begins at the legendary Klis Fortress, a symbol of resilience and one of Dalmatia’s most significant historical landmarks. Perched high between the Kozjak and Mosor mountains, this fortress has guarded the passage between the Dalmatian coast and its hinterland since the 2nd century BC. Over the centuries, Klis served as a royal stronghold for Croatian dukes and kings and became a pivotal battleground during wars with the Ottoman Empire. Here, you’ll learn about the fearless Klis ambushers, local warriors who defended their homeland with unmatched determination. As you wander its ancient walls, soak in panoramic views of Split and the Adriatic Sea, a sight as breathtaking as the fortress’s storied past.
