Location:
The first inhabitant of Split was the Roman emperor Diocletian who started to build his palace in this calm and friendly bay around 293 AD. After his abdication he withdrew there. The following turbulent centuries made the palace into a town first populated by the citizens of the nearby Salona, fleeing before the Avars and the Slavs. The town overgrew the walls of the palace and its masters kept changing - from the Croatian kings in 10th century AD, the Hungarian and Venetian administration, to the French rulers and Austro-Hungarian monarchy. Such past left traces in the town everyday life. The city, however, went on remaining the centre of this part of the coast till our days. This mixture of historic layers brought some clumsiness and some things done too fast but today all that makes a part of its originality.
