Amphitheatre de Pula

The Pula Arena (Croatian: Pulska Arena; Italian: Arena di Pola) is a Roman amphitheatre located in Pula, Croatia. It is the only remaining Roman amphitheatre to have four side towers entirely preserved. It was constructed between 27 BC and AD 68, and is among the world's six largest surviving Roman arenas.The arena is also the country's best-preserved ancient monument.

Kastel

Pula Castle “Kaštel” is an old fortress built by the Venetians, situated on a hill in the centre of Pula. It is interesting to point out that there are evidence that hill fort of the Histri was once in the same location. Because of its dominating position, the fortress was always used for defence of the city, bay and port. The Castle was built between 1630 and 1633, based on a design from French military engineer Antonio De Villa, so it belongs to the French style. It was always an important defensive point for Venetian control of the Adriatic.

The Twin Gates of Pula

he Twin Gates, also known as Porta Gemina, were named after its two semi-circular openings leading into the town, built in the period from the 2nd until the 3rd cc. on the remains of an earlier town gate. They were decorated by three semi-columns with composite capitals, and the relief wreath above connecting the composition into a harmonious unit. The arches still show the openings used for closing the gate and preventing the unwanted from entering the town. The Twin Gates also contain the plate with the name of Lucius Menacius Priscus, a town councilman and a senator, who personally funded the construction of one of the town's water supply networks.

Arch of the Sergii

Arch of the Sergii is an Ancient Roman triumphal arch located in Pula, Croatia. The arch commemorates three members of the Sergii family, specifically Lucius Sergius Lepidus, a tribune serving in the twenty-ninth legion that participated in the Battle of Actium and disbanded in 27 BC

Uljanik Shipyard (Pass by)

Uljanik was founded in 1856, in the carefully selected bay of Pula (then known as Pola) as a shipyard of the Austro-Venetian Navy (from 1867 to 1918 Austro-Hungarian Navy). The foundation stone was laid on December 9 by Empress Elisabeth of Austria so, this date is celebrated as the anniversary of the shipyard, one of the oldest operational shipyards in the world. Almost two years after laying the foundation stone – on October 5, 1858, the first ship – SMS Kaiser – having a deadweight of 5,194 tonnes, was launched from the berth. The construction of 55 ships of various type for the Austro-Hungarian fleet having a total deadweight of 53,588 tonnes followed.

Stoja Strand

Stoja is one of the two organised city swimming areas, located within the peninsula of the same name. Immersed in a genuine Mediterranean landscape, due to its natural location, it is protected from various natural summer surprises and, as such, is an ideal place to play, sunbathe, swim and socialise. The concrete plateau ensures unhindered access to the sea, numerous facilities offer various forms of entertainment, and the fenced area ensures quiet and carefree time without traffic. There is also a valuable beach building dating back to 1936, protected as a cultural asset, and today a small window into Pula’s rich past.

Lungomare

Lungomare is a well-known boardwalk in Pula located between Beach Valkane and Soline Cove. It is 4 km long, and is settled inside the thick pine woods.

Verudela

Verudela is an urban tourist district in Pula. Due to its tranquillity and remoteness from the urban hustle and bustle, it is considered one of the most prestigious residential areas of the city. It encompasses the Punta Verudelu peninsula, where there are numerous beaches that are popular during the tourist season with guests staying in the nearby hotels located right on the seafront.

Aquarium Pula

The largest aquarium in Croatia, located in a 130-year-old Austro-Hungarian fortification: Fort Verudela and Battery San Giovanni, where, for more than 20 years, the unique mix of natural and cultural heritage has been emphasised.

Chapel of St. Mary Formoza

The Basilica of Santa Maria del Canneto, or Santa Maria Formosa, was a sixth-century Byzantine church erected in Pola (modern-day Pula, Croatia) under the patronage of Maximianus, bishop of Ravenna. The structure was damaged at the time of the Venetian sack of Pola in 1243, and building material was subsequently taken from the ruins and primarily incorporated into the Marciana Library and the Basilica of Saint Mark in Venice.

Forum Square

The Forum, a central square of ancient and medieval Pula is located in the western part of the town. It was built during the 1st century BC on the designated area, with the entire city administration. It followed suit of any other Roman forum housing the temple dedicated to the Capitoline triad of Jupiter, Juno and Minerva. Apart from the central, there were two side temples on the Pula Forum.

Pula Communal Palace

The Communal Palace is situated at the northern end of the main square of the old part of the City of Pula, called the Forum Square. The spot occupied by the Palace has been used for the public buildings since Ancient Rome, when the place was used as a part of a triad of Roman temples, of which today only the Temple of Augustus remains. The eastern of these temples, called the Temple of Diana, was used as a rudimentary city hall from the 9th century.

Temple Of Augustus

The Temple of Augustus is a well-preserved Roman temple in the city of Pula, Croatia (known in Roman times as Pietas Iulia). Dedicated to the first Roman emperor, Augustus, it was probably built during the emperor's lifetime at some point between 27 BC and his death in AD 14. It was built on a podium with a tetrastyle prostyle porch of Corinthian columns and measures about 8 by 17.3 m (26 by 57 ft), and 14 m (46 ft) high.The richly decorated frieze is similar to that of a somewhat larger and more recent temple, the Maison Carrée in Nîmes, France. These two temples are considered the two best complete Roman monuments outside Italy.

Vergarola Memorial Park

The Vergarola explosion, also known in Italy as the Vergarolla massacre, took place on 18 August 1946 when the sudden detonation of 12 large pieces of assorted ordnance,containing an estimated 9 tonnes of explosives, killed more than 100 people and injured 100 others at Vergarola (or Vergarolla) beach, in Pula (Pola), which was at the time under temporary Allied military administration. The ordnance, which "had been swept from the water were piled up on a beach awaiting disposal"exploded at just after 2pm, 18 August 1946. Initial newspaper reports cited 43 dead and 57 injured, including two British soldiers.

Riva (Pass by)

The Pula waterfront stretches along the southeast coast of the Pula Bay, surrounding the old centre of Pula from the northwest. Like any coastal city, in Pula the waterfront is a place for walking and meeting, a place to rest on a bench after a hard day, even if it is only a small part of it, only 200 metres long.
