Narodni trg (People's Square)
Narodni trg (People's Square) Review
One of the Old Town's two main public spaces, the ever bustling Narodni trg is home of the Gradska Straza (City Sentinel), which was designed by a Venetian architect in late-Renaissance style with a large, central clock tower. The sentinel's stone barrier and railing, complete with holes for cannons, were added later. This impressive tower once housed the ethnographic section of the National Museum and is today a venue for various regular cultural exhibits.
