Zadar’s Old Town has been occupied since prehistoric times, with origins dating back to the Neolithic era and later thriving as the Roman city known as Jadera. This walking tour commences at the pier and progresses into the historic core of the peninsula. Notable attractions include the Romanesque Cathedral of St. Anastasia, the iconic Church of St. Donatus, and the Church of St. Mary, which houses an impressive collection of religious artifacts.
