SUMMARY:Underwater Archaeological Exhibition and Fortress Batarija Tour
DESCRIPTION:In the heart of the historic center of Vis\, visitors can explore Batarija – the most important and best-preserved fortification from the 19th century on the island. This Austrian defensive fortress played a crucial role in the Battle of Vis in 1866 and is now recognizable for its massive stone walls\, defensive moat\, and impressively well-preserved appearance. A short educational trail about the Battle of Vis\, the most significant naval battle in the Adriatic\, has been set up. \nA particularly attractive part of the tour is the Underwater Archaeology Collection – a collection of amphorae recovered from Vela Svitnja bay\, the site of one of the largest ancient shipwrecks in the Adriatic\, which testifies to the intensive maritime and trade connections of ancient Issa from before the Common Era. This exhibition offers a unique insight into the maritime\, economic\, and everyday history of Vis. \nVisiting Batarija and its collection is recommended to all who wish to experience the living history of the island and discover the fascinating stories hidden in Vis’s fortresses\, underwater world\, and its people. \n  \nOpening Hours \nEvery day except Saturday:\n9:00 AM – 1:00 PM\n5:00 PM – 9:00 PM \n

SUMMARY:Meštrović Collection – Exhibition - Free admission
DESCRIPTION:Ivan Meštrović (1883–1962) is one of the most important Croatian artists of all time\, renowned for his monumental sculptures that combine traditional themes with a modern artistic expression. His works often depict historical and mythological motifs\, distinguished by strong emotional intensity and dynamic forms. \n  \nSituated in the courtyard of the impressive\, five-century-old Jakša Palace in Kut\, the gallery is open to the public every evening from 10 July to 31 August. Opening hours are from 8 pm to 10 pm\, and admission is free. \nThe collection at Jakša Palace in the Kut area of Vis comprises around 30 original works by Meštrović\, including sculptures and reliefs\, making it an exceptionally valuable permanent exhibition. This collection is the legacy of his granddaughter\, Ivana Meštrović Stancomb\, who founded the gallery and opened it to the public during the summer months. \nThe works in this collection represent various phases of his artistic career\, and the gallery on Vis not only preserves Ivan Meštrović’s artistic heritage but also promotes Croatian culture and history through the works of one of the greatest Croatian artists. \nIvana and her English husband\, Anthony Stancomb\, fell in love with Dalmatia back in 1970 during their honeymoon. After the Croatian War of Independence ended (Homeland War 1991.-1995.)\, they came to Vis and were enchanted by the island. \nThey renovated the decaying\, three-storey Jakša Palace so they could spend four months there each summer\, and they opened a gallery in the courtyard to display their collection of Meštrović’s sculptures. \nThe historic setting of Jakša Palace further emphasises the significance and beauty of the exhibition. In 1944\, it served as the headquarters of the National Liberation Committee (NOB) for Dalmatia\, and it was in the vast kitchen of what is now this couple’s summer residence that Marshal Tito held meetings with British and American commanders. \nAs the only suitable building to accommodate the Austrian Emperor\, Franz Joseph stayed at Jakša Palace in 1866 to celebrate the Battle of Vis.

SUMMARY:Meštrović Collection – Exhibition - Free admission
DESCRIPTION:Ivan Meštrović (1883–1962) is one of the most important Croatian artists of all time\, renowned for his monumental sculptures that combine traditional themes with a modern artistic expression. His works often depict historical and mythological motifs\, distinguished by strong emotional intensity and dynamic forms. \n  \nSituated in the courtyard of the impressive\, five-century-old Jakša Palace in Kut\, the gallery is open to the public every evening from 10 July to 31 August. Opening hours are from 8 pm to 10 pm\, and admission is free. \nThe collection at Jakša Palace in the Kut area of Vis comprises around 30 original works by Meštrović\, including sculptures and reliefs\, making it an exceptionally valuable permanent exhibition. This collection is the legacy of his granddaughter\, Ivana Meštrović Stancomb\, who founded the gallery and opened it to the public during the summer months. \nThe works in this collection represent various phases of his artistic career\, and the gallery on Vis not only preserves Ivan Meštrović’s artistic heritage but also promotes Croatian culture and history through the works of one of the greatest Croatian artists. \nIvana and her English husband\, Anthony Stancomb\, fell in love with Dalmatia back in 1970 during their honeymoon. After the Croatian War of Independence ended (Homeland War 1991.-1995.)\, they came to Vis and were enchanted by the island. \nThey renovated the decaying\, three-storey Jakša Palace so they could spend four months there each summer\, and they opened a gallery in the courtyard to display their collection of Meštrović’s sculptures. \nThe historic setting of Jakša Palace further emphasises the significance and beauty of the exhibition. In 1944\, it served as the headquarters of the National Liberation Committee (NOB) for Dalmatia\, and it was in the vast kitchen of what is now this couple’s summer residence that Marshal Tito held meetings with British and American commanders. \nAs the only suitable building to accommodate the Austrian Emperor\, Franz Joseph stayed at Jakša Palace in 1866 to celebrate the Battle of Vis.

SUMMARY:Underwater Archaeological Exhibition and Fortress Batarija Tour
DESCRIPTION:In the heart of the historic center of Vis\, visitors can explore Batarija – the most important and best-preserved fortification from the 19th century on the island. This Austrian defensive fortress played a crucial role in the Battle of Vis in 1866 and is now recognizable for its massive stone walls\, defensive moat\, and impressively well-preserved appearance. A short educational trail about the Battle of Vis\, the most significant naval battle in the Adriatic\, has been set up. \nA particularly attractive part of the tour is the Underwater Archaeology Collection – a collection of amphorae recovered from Vela Svitnja bay\, the site of one of the largest ancient shipwrecks in the Adriatic\, which testifies to the intensive maritime and trade connections of ancient Issa from before the Common Era. This exhibition offers a unique insight into the maritime\, economic\, and everyday history of Vis. \nVisiting Batarija and its collection is recommended to all who wish to experience the living history of the island and discover the fascinating stories hidden in Vis’s fortresses\, underwater world\, and its people. \n  \nOpening Hours \nEvery day except Saturday:\n9:00 AM – 1:00 PM\n5:00 PM – 9:00 PM \n
