When you consider the great age of this archaeological site, atop a scenic hill outside Rovinj, it’s a wonder that so much of it is still intact.

This Bronze Age hill fort was founded in 1800BC, and ceramic fragments discovered at the site suggest that Monkodonja had ties with the Ancient Greek city of Mycenae.

At the site you can check out the walls, many of which are a metre or more in height, and you can also walk along ancient paved areas and a see a cultic cave.
