Fort Revelin

1462 · 15th century

Fort Revelin is a fortress outside the eastern land gate of Dubrovnik's walls, built in 1462–1463 when the Ottoman threat grew and rebuilt and greatly strengthened in 1538–1549 to plans by Antonio Ferramolino. It protected the Ploče gate and the eastern approach to the city. It is among the strongest of Dubrovnik's fortifications and survived the earthquake of 1667 almost undamaged.
