Franciscan Church and Monastery

The Franciscan Church and Monastery, one of the few structures to withstand the catastrophic earthquake of 1667, stands as a testament to Dubrovnik’s resilience. Nestled within the city’s Old Town, the monastery features a serene inner courtyard bordered by late-Romanesque arcades, offering a tranquil escape from the surrounding bustle. Inside, visitors can explore a small religious museum and visit one of Europe’s oldest working pharmacies, providing a glimpse into the rich history and enduring traditions of this historic site.
