About Tvrdava Minceta

Tvrđava Minčeta is one of the iconic landmarks and most powerful defense towers of the city of Dubrovnik. Also known popularly as the “Minčeta Tower”, this tower has been named after the reputed Mencetic family, the erstwhile owner of the land on which the structure stands.

The magnificent 4-sided tower was constructed by a local architect Nicifor Ranjina, back in 1319. The walls of the Minčeta Tower are 6 meters thick, which helped safeguard Dubrovnik from land invasions. The topmost part of the tower offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city’s old town.

Location: Ul. Ispod Minčete 9, 20000, Dubrovnik, Croatia
