Imperial Guard
An Imperial Retirement House On The Adriatic Shores
More info about retirement options can be found here: בית אבות סיעודי
The pulsating heart of Split, Croatia's second largest city is the location of Diocletian's Palace. Although Split boasts a treasured old town and a pleasant palm-lined harbor, its jewel in the crown is Diocletian's Palace. Pioneering the concept of retirement, the emperor Diocletian, a native of nearby Salona, had a palace constructed for him right here around 300AD, the place he spent the final 7 years of his life.
Among the best preserved Roman palace remnants on this planet, Diocletian's Palace is in no way a traditional archeological site. It's built-in into town with several thousand individuals residing within its walls, affording it a terrific part of its appeal and lending it the UNESCO World Heritage status. Roman walls, imperial quarters and medieval churches interpose with medieval houses, narrow alleyways and lovely squares featuring lively cafes and restaurants.

Situated next to the stunning harbor, the palace cannot be missed. Varied entrances through old gates lead you weaving through the maze of sandstone lanes. The properly-preserved Papalic palace homes the wonderful city museum, which provides a complete history of Split. From afar, the oldest Roman Cathedral of St. Dominus, planned as Diocletian's mausoleum, and constructed with 24 columns, altars and sculptures within a splendid octagonal construction stands out. Climb the tower for a superb panorama of the town and the surrounding lush Marijan Peninsula.
Conveniently situated a mere half hour's bus trip from Split, the UNESCO World Heritage town of Trogiroffers a perfect counterpart to Split. Resplendent with Venetian influence, in Trojir you have arrived in 16th century Italy rather than 21st century Croatia, its format basically unchanged for hundreds of years and its historic building, many second houses to aristocracy and nobility, almost completely preserved.
Trogir's well-known cathedral dominates the main square. The elegant cathedral is renowned for its west portal with allegorical scenes intricately carved in 1240 by Slav grasp mason Radovan. Among the many most attractive of the town's noble residences are the Cipiko Palace and the Kamarlengo Fortress.
Experiencing the wooded Marijan Peninsula, its palaces and aristocratic houses, the narrow old town streets of Split and Trogir, and enjoying its lively cafes made for a terrific adventure experience in an area laden with each visual and historical appeal.
