As Montenegro’s oldest town, Ulcinj has a great deal of history to share with curious visitors. For over 2,000 years Ulcinj has stood on the Adriatic coastline of southern Montenegro, withstanding marauding pirates and other occupiers, all of whom have left their mark on the town. You can start your visit by exploring the rambling fortified old town where you can see the stone walls and fortresses built centuries ago. Highlights of the old town include the North Gate, the museum, and several other medieval structures you can discover on foot along quaint cobbled streets. Soaring high above the old town the striking War Memorial is also worth a visit. After absorbing the historic atmosphere most visitors head to one of several great beaches to soak up the sun.
