Hvar Arsenal and Theatre

Type: historic building / museum

The 16th-century arsenal served as a shipyard for the Venetian fleet, and above it stands a theatre dating from 1612 — one of the oldest public theatres in Europe, predating many of the continent's more famous venues. Today the arsenal houses a contemporary art gallery, while the theatre remains active.
