Tour description
So, as much as it might seem tedious to talk and hear about the ancient past, we promise to do our best to turn it into the opposite.
BIRTH OF THE REPUBLIC OF DUBROVNIK
REPUBLIC EQUALS PEOPLE
The Statute of the Republic laid down all the rules as well as punishments for those who did not abide by them. For example, using bad language was punished by kneeling in the cathedral with a big heavy stone, “morica”, hanging around the person’s neck. Death on gallows, or a ride of shame on a donkey through the city, were common punishments at that time. The Rector’s Palace, besides being used as the Rector’s residence, was also the prison. There are still dungeons on the ground floor of the palace.
We will pay a visit the oldest working pharmacy in Europe, housed in the Franciscan Monastery. Also, during this Dubrovnik walking tour, you will learn just how the wise people of Dubrovnik maintained public health and hygiene in the city during the plague epidemic.
