97 HR - Historical Complex of Split with the Palace of Diocletian (1979)

Brief Description

"The ruins of Diocletian's Palace, built between the late 3rd and the early 4th centuries A.D., can be found throughout the city. The cathedral was built in the Middle Ages, reusing materials from the ancient mausoleum. Twelfth- and 13th-century Romanesque churches, medieval fortifications, 15th-century Gothic palaces and other palaces in Renaissance and Baroque style make up the rest of the protected area."

斯普利特古建筑群及戴克里先宫殿

"戴克里先宫殿建造于公元3世纪末到4世纪初,其废墟在城中随处可见。天主大教堂是中世纪时期在古代陵墓基础上建造的。12 至13世纪的罗马式教堂、中世纪防御工事、15世纪的哥特式宫殿以及其他文艺复兴时期和巴洛克风格的宫殿构成了保护内区的其他景点。"
