Arms Square (Trg od Oružja) is the main entrance and the beating heart of Kotor’s Old Town—where every visit to the city truly begins.
As part of this experience, you will arrive through the Sea Gate and step directly into the largest and most important square in Kotor. Surrounded by impressive stone palaces, historic institutions, and cafés, Arms Square immediately sets the tone for the city’s Venetian past and vibrant present.
The iconic Clock Tower, built in the early 17th century, subtly leaning today after surviving centuries of earthquakes.
Pima Palace is one of the finest and most recognizable noble residences in Kotor’s Old Town, standing proudly on the Square of Flour (Trg od Brašna).
During this stop, you will admire a palace that perfectly reflects the wealth, influence, and refined taste of Kotor’s aristocracy in the late medieval and early modern period. Built by the prominent Pima family, the palace blends Renaissance harmony with Baroque decorative elements, creating a façade that is elegant rather than imposing.
Grgurina Palace is one of the most impressive Baroque palaces in Kotor and a true symbol of the city’s rich maritime heritage.
As part of this experience, you will encounter an elegant 18th-century noble residence that once belonged to the influential Grgurina family—one of Kotor’s prominent seafaring families. The palace’s refined symmetry and decorative stonework immediately set it apart from surrounding buildings.
You will explore a cathedral that has stood here since 1166, surviving earthquakes, wars, and centuries of change. From the outside, you’ll admire its distinctive twin towers and stone façade that dominates Kotor’s Old Town square. Inside, the atmosphere shifts immediately: cool stone, soft light, and a sense of quiet dignity.
The Maritime Museum of Montenegro offers you a deep dive into Kotor’s centuries-old relationship with the sea—stories of captains, sailors, shipowners, and life on the Adriatic.
Housed in the elegant Grgurina Palace, an 18th-century Baroque residence, the museum immediately connects maritime history with noble life inside the Old Town walls. As you step inside, the atmosphere shifts from lively streets to a quiet world of navigation, trade, and adventure.
The Church of St Luke is one of Kotor’s most unique and meaningful churches, quietly standing in the Old Town since 1195.
During this stop, ou will discover a modest Romanesque church whose importance lies not in size, but in its story. For centuries, the Church of St Luke served both Catholic and Orthodox communities, a rare example of shared worship and religious coexistence in the region.
The Piazza of the Cinema is one of Kotor’s most lively and atmospheric squares, known for its strong connection to culture, art, and everyday local life.
During this stop, you will arrive at a square named after the historic cinema building, which was once part of the Napoleon Theatre—a reminder of the city’s cultural development during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Over time, the space evolved into a social and artistic hub within the Old Town.
