This place make you realise why the Croatians are so proud of their history. The fact that such a small number of people from the town could hold back an army of so many is such a proud feat of its own, and the museum displays this so well.

Fortress of Sinj

Reviewed By Marko_Oz86 - Zagreb, Croatia

The Sinj fortress was historically a very important location, but nowadays not much is left. The ruins are quite low and don't offer much in terms of interest themselves - they aren't even well presented (or at all?). Maybe something WILL be done in the future, but right now, nope. There's a chapel, which seemed locked when we were there, a statue of the Virgin Mary, and a cross, classic stuff. The view from here is, however, excellent, and basically the only thing worth the very steep hike from the town, which most definitely isn't easy unless you're very fit, and while far from the hardest in the world, if you're out of shape or tire easily, you won't have fun. I was in two minds whether I should give it a 4 or a 3, but without ease of access for the average person, I had to give a 3.

Отдыхали в Черногории. Выбрали виллу Vjera. Номер хороший, ремонт свежий. Персонал убирал каждый день. Хозяева гостеприимные очень люди. Подскажут что нужно. Разрешают ставить машину на имеющуюся парковку. До моря 500 метров. С моря идти немного в гору, но это нас нисколько не смущало. Рекомендую данную виллу.

Gaius Laberius

A tombstone of a seven-year-old Roman boy Gaius Laberius holding a ball with hexagons joined in the manner of a net-like ornament. The symbol of a real leather ball, it is considered firm evidence that football in Europe was first played in the Cetinska Krajina Region. It was found in the Tilurium site, in the locality of Gardun, and dates back to the 2nd century. Today the tombstone is built into the front wall of the Perković family-owned stone building in Vrlička ulica at number 10 in Sinj. Made of limestone, the monument is 113 centimetres high and 46 centimetres wide. At the bottom there is a two-part inscription, the first part of the inscription being in a well-defined frame and informing about Gaius Laberius, whereas the second part is an inscription by an unkonown author dedicated to the boy. The central part is a round medallion framed with ornaments, bearing a portrait of the boy who holds the ball in his right hand. At the top of the monument there is a frieze showing a kantharos (a large two-handle vase), a dolphin and the head of Medusa (in ancient mythology, the personification of evil) and a triangular gable with acroteria (plastic ornaments of tops and corners) in the shape of lion’s paws. The head of Atis is sculptured in the triangular gable. Even though football was played at Gardun among Roman soldiers and sons of the rich, originally the game was Illyrian and the Delmates had played it long before the Roman troops arrived.
