The full story

Inside Diocletian’s Palace, the Cathedral of Saint Domnius occupies a former Roman mausoleum. Its ancient fabric and later church use make it a concentrated stop in Split’s historic core.

The cathedral makes the palace’s long afterlife visible in one building. Ancient stone survives beneath the later religious setting, and a separate climb up the bell tower can add a view across Split. The church and tower require different kinds of time and effort, so decide which parts suit your visit.

  • Ancient stonework survives within the church setting.
  • A bell tower rises beside the cathedral.

Check separate access to the church and tower, and expect steps in the tower.
