City Guard Returns to Watch Over Dubrovnik’s Gates
Throughout history, Dubrovnik, as a fortified city, had its own guard keeping watch outside the city walls and warning of potential attackers.
Today, you can still witness this tradition with the City Guard.
From June 15 to September 15, 2026, every Wednesday and Saturday from 7 to 8:30 PM, visitors can witness the guards marching down Stradun before taking their posts at Pile and Ploče Gates.
So bring your camera and capture one of Dubrovnik’s authentic summer moments.
