Cannon - The Old Harbour - Dubrovnik - Static Artillery Displays on Waymarking.com

A cannon facing out over the old harbour on the city wall of Dubrovnik

"One of the oldest sectors of Dubrovnik was constructed around a Late Antique castle by the sea, which stretched landwards a bit more than it does today. It was constructed on the site of the Pre-Romanesque cathedral and the Rector's Palace, thus encircling the city's harbour. The harbour was designed and constructed by engineer Paskoje Milicevic in the late 15th century. Notably, the harbour was noticeably painted on the palm of St. Blaise in a triptych painted by the artist Nikola Božidarevic around 1500."
