About Katedrala sv. Dujma
The Katedrala sv. Dujma occupies the former mausoleum of Diocletian, inside the palace of Split. The change of use preserved a Roman structure at the center of a religious complex. The cathedral can be perceived both by its ancient volume and by the elements added over time.
The bell tower rises beside the building and marks the silhouette of the historic core. The religious visit and the climb to the tower are different experiences, with distinct circulation and physical effort. The complex allows you to relate the mausoleum space to the transformation of the palace into a city.
Check which sections are included in access and which can be visited during services. Those who do not intend to climb the bell tower can still observe the architecture from the Peristyle. Combine the cathedral with the palace walk, reserving a specific stage to see the interior details.
