ABOUT CAVTAT

Originally it was a Greek settlement called Epidauros. Around 228 BC it was under the Romans and later became a Roman colony. The name Cavtat originates from Civitas vetus, as the fugitives in the newly established Dubrovnik used to call their first habitation. Archaeological finds from those times include the remains of a Roman theatre (?), as well as tombs and the remains of a Roman road above the present town. The ancient town was destroyed at the beginning of the 7th century, during the invasions of the Avars and the Slavs. - The remains of town ramparts toward the mainland and the Renaissance-style Duke's Palace, a work by local masters, have been preserved from the 15th/16th century. The Baroque parish church features wooden altars. The parsonage houses an art gallery. The Gothic-Renaissance Franciscan church keeps a polyptych (beginning of the 16th c.) by Vicko Lovrin, while the monastery safeguards an art collection. The collection of Baltazar Bogisic contains numerous graphics by domestic and -foreign artists, ethnographical objects and a small archaeological collection of stone monuments and fragments. The large library keeps also several extremely valuable books. The house of Vlaho Bukovac keeps a collection of his paintings and mementoes. On the cemetery is the mausoleum of the Racic family, a work by Ivan Mestrovic (1920-1930) and in the town the monument of Baltazar Bogisic.
