Split , Croatia

Two postcards from my Croatian friend Klaudija from her hometown Split ! One of them is the Cathedral of Saint Domnius or Sveti Duje as the locals call him and he is the patron Saint of Split . Klaudija wrote that this was originally a mausoleum for the emperor Diocletian built by him in the years 295-305. (St Duje was martyred in the persecutions by Diocletian )
The other card portrays Obala ( a neighborhood of Split I'd guess ) in the end of 19th century /beginnings of the 20th ! That fountain was removed by communists in 1940-50 and by the time Klaudija sent that card it was a subject very much talked about , so who knows maybe something similar is built !  Those palm trees are now HUGE !

Dalmatia , Croatia

A new country to my collection ! CROATIA ! Although Croatia is not that far from where I live , this is my first written and stamped from there ,. In the old part of my collection I have 2 " art cards" from Split showing the history of the city . Dalmatia is the pearl of Croatian tourism , its most important cities is Split , Zadar, Sibenik & Dubrovnik , its most important islands Dugi Otok , Uglijan , Hvar...etc. So here you are a Fisher Town from somewhere there :) Hvala Agi :)
