The Diocletian's Palace is an ancient palace that was built for Roman Emperor Diocletian around the turn of the 4th century. Even though it is named a palace, in size it is closer to a fortress and it comprises approximately half of the old town of Split, Croatia.
Part of the building was used for Diocletian's residence and personal use and the other part was home to a military garrison.
Today the palace is the single most complete Roman palace and the most significant architectural feature on all of Croatia's coast. The palace has modern amenities for tourists, such as a snack bar, restaurant, and souvenir shop.
