Overview

Tour includes sightseeing of the Old Town of Dubrovnik concentrated on the position of woman (aristocrats and commoners) in the Dubrovnik Republic (13 – 19th c). A forcible ordination of daughters in nunneries, a treatment of illegitimate children and orphans, physical abuse on the one hand, and glorifying of women by numerous poets on the other hand was their reality. The tour includes a visit to the Museum of the Convent Od Sigurate, the last existing women convent within the city walls and a visit to the Od Sigurate Churc, one of oldest existing buildings within the Walls, built probably at the end of the 8th or beginning of the 9th c. The additional attraction is the meeting with one of 5 nuns who live in this convent today.
