Fort St John

Fort St John guards the old town harbour

This massive battlement guards the entrance to Dubrovnik's Old Harbour. You can pose on cannons along its upper terrace during a city walls walk, but you’ll need separate tickets to visit the aquarium, Maritime Museum and Pulitika Studio, all housed within.
