Klis Fortress
 |
Roman settlement of Salona, the towns of Solin, Kaštela and Trogir, and most of the central Dalmatian islands
Historically, the fortress has controlled access to and from Bosnia, Dalmatia and inland Croatia. The importance of such a position was felt by every army that invaded, or held possession of this part of Croatia, Klis Fortress was a point against which their attacks were always directed, and it has been remarkable for the many sieges it withstood. It has been of major strategic value in Croatia throughout history. |
