 | Dubrovnik Rector's Palace Reviews | 1 - 10 of 16 |  |
When you are tired of walking in the sun, you can walk under the shade of Rector's Palace (Knezev dvor) arches. At the very beginning, in the Middle Ages, it was a fortress for defense where gunpowder was kept. It had exploded and burnt often. In the 15th, after one such accident, the famous architect Onofrio rebuilt it with one level, gothic style. After a new gunpowder explosion, in 1463, it was built another time in Renaissance style. After the 1667 earthquake, baroque parts were added. This mixture of styles is what makes the Rector's Palace so unique. Leave a Comment

Inside, there are some exhibits of some rather boring artifacts, but the former jails are at least moderately interesting and the palace's Renaissance atrium is a beautiful space in which concert recitals are held in the summer time. Leave a Comment

 Knezev Dvor atrium by KristaB
At the atrium of Knezev dvor there is a water well, where all inhabitants were free to come, collect water, wash their clothes and talk. This forum was always full of action, people laughing, arguing, and even fighting! No secret could stay hidden within this city walls!
Today this atrium serves as one superb concert venue, with perfect acoustics for chamber music. Leave a Comment

The museum of the Rector's Place houses artwork and furniture, giving insight to how the Rector lived here on their official duties. The Rectors of Dubrovnik governed for a period of one month only before a new one was elected and during this time he lived, alone, without his family. He could leave the palace only when engaged upon some state business; otherwise he was not allowed to leave it. The Place has an internal courtyard and off this are the interesting little prisions too - have a look for the carving of the dragon on the right hand side of the entrance.
