The City Hall and Marin Držić Theatre


South of the clock tower on the eastern end of Stradun begins a remarkable chain of buildings. The first is the old Arsenal, with three (originally four) huge arches facing seawards. Here, galleons would be brought into dry dock for repair. (Now, it’s a place to bring hungry stomachs for refilling, and for lubricating throats). The city coffee house is a grand café with seating overlooking St Blaise’s Church. Next door are the chambers of the city council, followed by the Marin Držić Theatre. The buildings are fronted by steps and balustrades – it’s a fine sight to see the theatregoers and orchestra’s musicians gathered there on a warm evening.

This is the only site that would let me veiw my opinion. My concern is about the innocent domestic cats that are littered all over this city in devistating numbers. These poor kittens are hungry and blind from eye disease and this city is doing nothing about it. This city needs to become civillised in the matter of animal control and CARE. In Australia a matter like this would be dealt with in a civil matter so no more cats would suffer like this. These cats need to be either taken care of or cats here need to be euthinised. These are domestic cats that have been thrown away and the city of Dubrovnik needs to take responsibility for this.
