A tour of Ston Town Walls

From the coming summer, visitors�of Ston at Peljesac Peninsula�will be�offered to take a tour of� the 5.5 kilometres long Ston Town Walls that have been under renovation for the past couple of� years.

The renovation was initiated by the Association for the preservation of the Dubrovnik Historical Heritage, and mainly financed by�Dubrovnik City Walls ticket sales.

The Ston Town Walls, fortified by around 40 towers and five citadels, spreading along the entire length of the peninsula,� were built by the Dubrovnik Republic between�1333�and 1506, by which two small towns� – Ston and Mali Ston were�established at the southern and north tip of the walls.

The announcement of the tours of the entire walls has already stirred great interest among tourists, and many international tour-operators and tourist agencies are expected to include this attraction in their programs.

For a tour of� the walls the entrance fee�will be charged , so that future maintenance of this monument� can be financed.
