Know before you go

• Klis Fortress is a small medieval stronghold near Split, Croatia. The fortress dates back to the seventh century. Though it started as a small stronghold, it developed into a royal castle and eventually a large fortress during the Ottoman wars. Throughout history, it has been the seat of many Croatian rulers. It served as a crossroads between the Balkans and the Mediterranean and, as a result, was often under attack.
