About this quest

Play a city exploration game while you imagine the street life in Medieval Dubrovnik! If you know how to listen, you will find out that the walls of Dubrovnik indeed can talk. From history, diplomacy, everyday life to food, they have a lot of stories to tell. 

Solve challenges and discover one of the oldest pharmacies in Europe, the 16th century graffiti about football and the scary legend of the Lokrum island. 

Is this for you?

Who it's for

Couples and families exploring Dubrovnik's Old Town get its medieval story as a puzzle walk: one of Europe's oldest pharmacies, 16th century football graffiti, the Rector's Palace and the scary legend of Lokrum. It covers 1.7 km in just over two hours and is best done in daylight. Pick something else if you want a live guide to question, or have toddlers who won't last two hours of walking and puzzles.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a walk through medieval Dubrovnik?
Yes. The route stays in the Old Town and tells the stories of medieval Dubrovnik through its walls and buildings, from history and diplomacy to everyday life and food. Stops include the old Franciscan pharmacy, Onofrio's Fountain, Sponza Palace and the Rector's Palace.

It starts at Pile by the Amerling Fountain and finishes at Marin Držić's Statue. Along the way you pass the Franciscan Monastery pharmacy, the Jesuit Stairs, the Cathedral, the Old Harbour, Sponza Palace, the Church of St. Blaise and the Rector's Palace. It is not a loop.
How long does it take and how far do we walk?
Most players take just over two hours, around 2 to 2.5 hours including walking and solving the challenges. The route is about 1.7 km through the Old Town, so the distance is short and most of the time goes into the stories and puzzles at each stop.
Is it suitable for kids, and can we play as a group?

Old City context

A maritime republic preserved inside its walls

Dubrovnik became an important Mediterranean sea power from the 13th century. Despite the devastating earthquake of 1667 and damage during conflict in the 1990s, its walled center preserves Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque churches, monasteries, palaces and fountains. The time-travel story is fictional; the city’s maritime power, architecture and cycles of destruction and restoration are real. Playable languages: English, German, Spanish, Italian, French.
