You will pass the "Fort Brioni Minor", which is the largest fort on the Adriatic coast. It was built in 1895. and is part of the defense belt that surrounded Pula. Until 2001, the fort was under military protection, and from then until today, the summer theater "Ulysses" is held there.
  • This is one of several buildings you will pass during this cruise. The rich and diverse architectural heritage dates back to different historical periods. At the end of the 19th century, the island would flourish with the arrival of Paul Kupelwieser, when the transformation of Brijuni began. Thanks to Paul Kupelwiesser, Brijuni became a gathering place for the aristocratic, cultural, scientific, industrial and economic elite when he turned Brijuni into an exclusive summer resort.
  • "Veliki Brijun" is the largest, most beautiful and most visited Brijuni island. This island is an exceptional example of harmony achieved by the intertwining of nature and the human touch. Veliki Brijun is partly cultivated into a harmonious landscape of lawns and landscape parks, and besides exceptionally valuable remains of architectural heritage, it contains preserved vegetation types typical for the western Istrian climate. Although open to the public, a part of the island is managed by the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Croatia. Part of the Veliki Brijun has a special function and is used for residential purposes of the President and Government of the Republic of Croatia.
