Pula Citadel
Pula, Croatia, Croatia
Pula Citadel, also known as Kaštel Fortress, is a historic fortress located on a hill in the center of Pula, Croatia.
Built by the Venetian Republic in the 17th century, it was designed to protect the city and its important harbor, and its distinctive star-shaped layout reflects the military architecture of the period. The fortress overlooks the old town and offers panoramic views of Pula, the Adriatic Sea, and the famous Pula Arena. Its strategic position made it a key defensive structure throughout the city's history.
Today, the citadel houses the Historical and Maritime Museum of Istria, where visitors can explore exhibits on the region’s maritime, military, and cultural heritage. Combining impressive architecture, history, and some of the best viewpoints in the city, it is one of Pula’s most popular attractions.
