DIOCLETIAN'S PALACE AND SPLIT OLD TOWN WITH THE VISIT TO MEŠTROVIĆ GALLERY

We start with the exploration of grandiose Diocletian's Palace  - a UNESCO World Heritage site that represents the best preserved late-antiquity building in the world.

Built at the end of the 3rd century AD, the Diocletian's Palace is definitely the most significant Roman site in Croatia. With locals still living within its walls. it is a living monument of one era and certainly a "must see" when visiting Split.

We then take a taxi ( 3-5 minutes' ride ) to the iconic Mestrovic Gallery proudly housing the works if Ivan Mestrovic - the most outstanding Croatian sculptor and architect of the 20th century.

As a cosmopolitan global artist who lived and worked across Europe Mestrovic moved to the USA in 1947 where he taught as a university lecturer. Appreciated by the American people and President Eisenhower, he was granted American citizenship.
