No trip to Dubrovnik is complete without a visit to the Sponza Palace, a monumental Gothic Renaissance structure and one of the most beautiful palaces of the city. Built during 1516 to 1522, the palace still retains its original architecture and is located at the end of Placa Street. As it was once the home of a number of state offices, explorers can get a taste of political and cultural history when visiting the palace. For guests who just want to appreciate the beauty of the palace, a trip to the large inner courtyard and a walk along the open porches is a must. Visitors can feast their eyes on spectacular sculptural ornaments added to the palace by master stone cutters in the 1500s.
