Sibenik is the only city in the region to have been discovered by native Croats, unlike other cities in Dalmatia which were found by other cultures.
Sibenik was the first city in the world to supply electricity to its population over 100 years ago, through an electric system at Krka River which was devised by the Croatian, Nikola Tesla.
Fans of UNESCO World Heritage Sites will be glad to know that Sibenik is one of the few cities in the world to host two monuments. The Gothic and Renaissance-styled St James Cathedral and the oldest monument in town, St Nicholas Fortress, are both on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Game of Thrones fans will be glad to know that Sibenik features asI a background to 3 episodes in Season 5. The Cathedral of St James is the setting for the Iron Bank in the City of Bravos.Read more
