The School excursion will be organised as a boat trip between the two towns on 01/09/2020. Some beach time will be planned for. More info to come later.

Hands-on activities will be held on-campus in SPLIT

When Emperor Diocletian was considering retirement from governing the Roman Empire, he shopped around, found no decent accommodations and decided to build his own. Thus, Split was born. This magnificent walled city palace, built to Diocletian’s exacting standards, today retains enough of its original charms to attract visitors by the thousands.

 Amid the remnants of Diocletian’s grand residences, pre-Christian sphinxes and the best marble that the neighboring island of Brač could provide, there is a pleasingly workaday town. Pavement cafés, cozy bars and plenty of shops mix with two lively markets and chic apartments built from the very barracks where Diocletian’s soldiers once lived.

Split is the economic and administrative center of Central Dalmatia, with about 200,000 inhabitants. It is a busy port.  An international airport and regular ferry services connect Split to the nearby islands, the Northern and Southern Adriatic, Italy and Greece.

Accommodation in Split

The participants will be accommodated in the new dorm on the campus of University of Split.

A few days of lectures in Primošten

Primošten is a small town situated on an islet, only a stone’s throw from the mainland (to which it was connected in the 16th century).

The principal attraction is the town itself: stone houses, churches and narrow, tortuous Mediterranean streets. Located within the maize of Dalmatian coves, islands and peninsulas, Primošten is a town with a rich and tumultuous history, once renowned for agriculture and now for tourism.

Accommodation in Primošten

The participants will be accommodated in Hotel Zora, situated on a small peninsula just across the town of Primošten, lending spectacular views of the town and the sea.
