Cruise Overview


Today a port town surrounded by industrial suburbs, Koper nevertheless warrants a visit.

The Republic of Venice made Koper the regional capital during the 15th and 16th centuries, and the magnificent architecture of the Old Town bears witness to the spirit of those times.The most important buildings are clustered around Titov trg, the central town square.

Here stands the Cathedral, which can be visited daily from 7 to noon and 3 to 7, with its fine Venetian Gothic facade and bell tower dating back to 1664.

Across the square the splendid Praetor's Palace, formerly the seat of the Venetian Grand Council, combines Gothic and Renaissance styles.

From the west side of Titov trg, the narrow, cobbled Kidriceva ulica brings you down to the seafront.
A small, quiet, well-heeled city, Ravenna has brick palaces, cobblestone streets, magnificent monuments, and spectacular Byzantine mosaics.

The high point in its civic history occurred in the 5th century, when Pope Honorious moved his court here from Rome.

Gothic kings Odoacer and Theodoric ruled the city until it was conquered by the Byzantines in AD 540.

Ravenna later fell under the sway of Venice, and then, inevitably, the Papal States.Because Ravenna spent much of its past looking east, its greatest art treasures show that Byzantine influence.

Churches and tombs with the most unassuming exteriors contain within them walls covered with sumptuous mosaics.

These beautifully preserved Byzantine mosaics put great emphasis on nature, which you can see in the delicate rendering of sky, earth, and animals.

Outside Ravenna, the town of Classe hides even more mosaic gems.
