2. PLATANES IN TRSTENO – Two impressive plane trees, Platanus orientalis, soar to about 50 meters in height with a trunk circumference of 12 meters. Estimated to be 400 years old, these living giants hold immense scientific value. Nestled near the Adriatic Highway, they bear witness to Trsteno's rich history, located 18 kilometers from Dubrovnik's historic core. In Trsteno, a town once populated by wealthy merchants, shipowners, and seafarers, the trees were brought from Asia Minor by Captain Florio Jakob Antunov, known as "Indian." Only five young saplings survived, but the resilient duo thrived thanks to the local climate, a nearby water source, and the cultural ambiance of the time. The townspeople's care and provision for the plane trees, alongside their material legacies, have contributed to their preservation. These platanes symbolize both the cultural heritage and the scientific significance of Trsteno.

About Dubrovnik

Ringed by mighty walls, Dubrovnik is the pearl of the Adriatic, a medieval city of marble streets and terracotta roofs rising straight from the sea.

A walk around the city walls, nearly two kilometres of towers and bastions, gives unforgettable views over the rooftops and the sea. Inside, the Stradun, the polished limestone main street, runs from the Pile Gate past Onofrio's Fountain, the Franciscan Monastery with its old pharmacy, and the Rector's Palace.
