Srđ

Srđ is a low mountain just behind the walled city of Dubrovnik in Dalmatia, Croatia.

[2] At its top is a large white stone cross and Fort Imperial, a defensive structure built by the French in 1810 during the Napoleonic Wars.

Srđ is popular with tourists as a viewpoint[1] from which it is possible to see the walled city of Dubrovnik, Lokrum island, the Adriatic Sea and various local attractions (including restaurants and the Stradun).

The mountain was home to one of the fiercest battles of the Independence War, namely the Siege of Dubrovnik, and this is commemorated in a museum in Fort Imperial.

[3] The cable car that was disabled during this time has since been reopened, and Srđ has been developed as a tourist attraction, with a restaurant[1] and a base for buggy safaris.

The White Cross that had been destroyed during the 1991–95 war has been rebuilt.
