Castello di Coriolano Cippico
This 16th-century fortified mansion is located on a cliff overlooking the sea on the Kaštela coast. Built by a nobleman for defense and residence, the site retains its original walls and towers that surround the village. Visitors go here to see the historical military architecture and attend cultural exhibitions or performances held within the venue.
Getting There
The castle is located in the Kaštela area, east of Split city centre. You can reach it via local bus or by car. The journey typically takes 20 to 30 minutes depending on traffic conditions.
Visit Duration
Allow approximately 1 to 2 hours to walk around the fortifications and view the current exhibitions.
When to Visit
The site is accessible throughout the year. Visiting during the morning or late afternoon avoids the midday heat of the Dalmatian coast. While less crowded than the center of Split, the area can see more visitors during the summer months.
