Another one of the top things to do in town is pay a visit to the Count's Palace, which is just a short stroll from Sibenik Cathedral. The late Renaissance-era Rector's Palace was originally built to serve as the governor's residence during the 16th-century time of Venetian rule.
Today, the palace houses the city's Civic Museum (Muzej Grada Sibenika), with its many local archeological artifacts dating from Neolithic to Roman times, including sculptures (some from the 7th century), a coin collection, and other miscellaneous items from the surrounding region.
