Overview

The Venetian tour around Hvar is a 2-hour walking guided programme about the influence of Venetian culture on Croatian land. Do you know that Hvar was once part of the Venetian kingdom? Our professional local guide will tell you the most interesting facts and legends about it. We start from the Franciscan Monastery, where we can contemplate the famous “Last Supper” an exquisite work of high Renaissance art by the Venetian painters Palma Junior and Francesco Santacroce. We take a stroll down to Hvar's ancient port, its medieval streets shrouded in legends from long ago. Do you know that the main square of the city was built during the time of Venetian rule? Witness numerous buildings in the heart of the city, including a distaff-styled baroque bell tower. End your walk in Hvar’s Loggia, a beautiful piece of Renaissance architecture. It was once part of the Venetian governor’s palace.
