What You Will Do
On our Private Lopud Walking Tour we will discover the exciting history of an island that used to have ten times more inhabitants than today, its own shipyard, many rich residents and aristocrats living in stone mansions with glamorous parks and private chapels, and much more.
We will go to historic sites dating from the Middle Ages all the way to the late 20th century. Moreover, you’ll find out little secrets and curiosities, such as how Lopud born ship-owner Miho Pracat is the only person in Dubrovnik history who got his statue exhibited in Dubrovnik’s Rector Palace.
If you’re a romantic soul, don’t miss out on the most tragic Lopud love story of a peasant girl Marija and her forbidden love — noble Ivan. And let’s not forget the stunningly beautiful Lopud’s nature, crystal clear sea, and golden sandy beaches.

1 - HOTEL PRACAT Stop 5min We’ll stroll down the promenade to the old building, former Hotel Pracat, built on top of a 9th-century chapel. Many intriguing legends have been formed around the hotel. 2. LOPUD MUSEUM Stop 10 min The next stop is Lopud square in front of the museum, which unfortunately hasn’t been open to the public since the Homeland War. You’ll also learn how to use an old sun clock, which may come handy if all the clocks on the island suddenly stop or you want to impress a special someone. 3 - ST JEROME CHURCH Stop 5min As we stroll further along the promenade we will stop in front of the 17th century St. Hieronymus chapel, which is a prime example of how the wealthy Lopud inhabitants spent their money. 4. THE CHAPEL OF THE CRUCIFIED REDEEMER Stop 7min There are many stories and fascinating legends about Miho Pracat who built this church. The church itself still plays a role in the life of Catholics on Lopud Island
