FRA LUJO MARUN

… the place of our magnificent monuments should be in a magnificent monument like the Knin fortress, on this land where every bitch of the earth remembers the most beautiful times of national life, here in Knin, where national archeology sparked, the earth broke and the plant grew…

Knin Museum

During the Homeland War the Fortress area with Museum buildings was devastated and the collection was partially plundered. The Museum was reopened for the public in 1996, and its collection was displayed in the southern part of the Fortress in three refurbished buildings.

Bellissimo e romantico! È stato molto piacevole vedere il tramonto e cenere al ristorante.

Amazing and historical fortress dating back to the Byzantine empire. Even Napoleon of France once visited this great fortress. A must see for all travelers going to Croatia.

Zlatko Leko

Strateško povjesno mjesto u Hrvata koje dominira cijelim krajem. Svatko od nas treba doći i vidjeti.

Ivan Ivanovic

Najljepša tvrđava na kojoj sam bio, mnogo velika sa predivnim pogledom na grad Knin i rijeku Krku.

Karla Stjepanovic

Jako jako lijep pogled s tvrđave, a i sama tvrđava je dosta velika i zanimljiva za obilazak. Cijena je nekih 20kn za odraslu osobu, što nije skupo s obzirom da se doista ima što za vidjeti. U sklopu tvrđave je i muzej koji se može posjetiti i uključen je u cijenu karte.

Tomica Letina

Lijepo mjesto, prekrasan pogled na grad i okolicu. Mjesto puno simbolike.
