City of Hvar

From the southern side of the island lies a city of Hvar or New city. In time it gained ascendancy over Stari Grad so that even the bishop moved his seat to Novi Grad. It has numerous sights that reflect its centuries of history. In 1612 a theatre was built here, the oldest public theatre in Europe. Its is still active, its stage features rich drama repertoire, especially during the summer months.

On the hilltop above the city rises a city fort known as Fortica. It was built on the remains of the Medieval fort from the 16th century and building inside the fort were built during the Austrian empire. Today Fortica reconstructed into a tourist attraction with a museum, restaurant and a largest disco on the island. City square is the largest in Dalmatia with 4500 m2. Its eastern side is covered with cathedral and a bishop's palace with a museum. From the northern and a southern side there are numerous public buildings and palaces. In the centre of the square lies a large well from is 1520.

Near the cove on the south of the city lies a Franciscan monastery. It was built from 1461 to 1471 as a sailor's inn. Baptistery with its monumental arcades with well in the centre dominates the whole renaissance complex. The whole monastery is surrounded with gardens and walls. In the garden in front of the dining room lies cypress tree 300 years old with impressive size and strange shape, Inside the monastery is a museum with old books, coins and a painting of last Supper from the early 17th century.
