A few facts about Split

Split is the largest city on the Eastern Adriatic and the second largest city in Croatia.

It lies on the eastern shore of the Adriatic Sea on a peninsula, under the Marjan hill and is an intraregional transport hub and popular tourist destination. It is often nicknamed The City under the Marjan.

The city was founded as the Greek colony of Aspálathos in the 3rd or 2nd century BC on the coast of what was then an Illyrian province.

Over time, as the Romans conquered the province, Split became home to the Diocletian's Palace, built for the Roman emperor Diocletian in AD 305.

By AD 650, Split became a prominent settlement when it succeeded Salona asthe capital of the Roman province of Dalmatia.

After the sack of Salona by the Avars and Slavs, Roman refugees settled the fortified Palace of Diocletian.

The city drifted into between the sphere of the Republic of Venice and the Kingdom of Croatia, caught in the middle of a struggle between Venice and Croatia for control over the Dalmatian cities.

Venice eventually prevailed and during the early modern period Split became a Venetian city, a heavily fortified outpost surrounded by Ottoman territory.

In 1797, as Venice fell to Napoleon, the Treaty of Campo Formio gave the city to the Habsburg Monarchy and Split remained under Habsburg rule until the fall of Austria-Hungary in 1918 and the formation of Yugoslavia.

During World War II, Split was first annexed by Italy, then captured by the Partisans after the Italian capitulation in 1943, but was then re-occupied by Germany and came under the rule of the Independent State of Croatia as did the rest of Dalmatia.

The city was again captured by the Partisans in 1944, and was included in the post-war Socialist Yugoslavia.

In 1991, Croatia gained seceded from Yugoslavia, at the start of the Croatian War of Independence.

What to see while in Split

The historic city centre of Split was included into the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites in 1979.

Split is one of the centres of Croatian culture and its literary tradition can be traced to medieval times, as the Father of Croatian Literature, Marko Marulić, whose statute stands on the Fruit Square, was born here and achieved world-wide recognition and fame and his works were read even by notable persons such as the English king Henry VIII.

The city is most famous for its Diocletian's Palace, the old city centre.

There you can see the St Duje's Cathedral on the Peristil, which was at first a mausoleum for emperor Diocletian. The church is combination of ancient Roman architecture and early Christian architecture. From its bell tower, you'll have a great view of the whole city and the Diocletian's Palace.

Opposite the cathedral, you'll find the old Jupiter's Temple, now St Johns church, in front of which stands an original Egyptian sphinx, the other being on the Peristil, both of which emperor Diocletian brought here from Egypt.

The Peristil itself, the heart of the Palace, is an excellent example of old Roman architecture, around which later Medieval and Christian structures were constructed. Many cultural events take place on the Peristil during the Split Summer Festival, where plays and operas are performed under the night sky.

The Riva is the main city promenade along the seashore, where the bulk of the cafés are located and where people like to stroll and meet with friends in the evenings.
