The fort offers a beautiful view of the town of Drniš and the surrounding region. It was built over the Čikola canyon and was once of great strategic importance. Throughout history, it was under the rule of the noble Nelipić family, the Ottoman Empire and the Venetians. In the 19th century, it lost all function and became a source of construction material for the growing town of Drniš. The remains on the south side are part of the medieval fortress, while the central tower is from the Ottoman rule. Getting to the is very interesting as you pass through the narrow streets of the old town. The Medieval Gradina is situated above the Cikola canyon, with nice views. Archaeological research has shown that some remains can be placed in the Late Ancient Roman times, where was likely used to control important trade routes. It can be reached by car, but GPS was a bit confused guiding us through narrow streets. There is sufficient parking at the top, we were only visitors in the early afternoon on saturday. There is also a nice viewpoint across the Cikola canyon where you should stop on your way to the coastline. Zanimljivo mjesto s utvrdom kao povijesnom zanimljivošću. Dosta zelenila i zanimljiv pogled prema kanjonu Čikole. Može se prošetati i do obližnje mlinice na rijeci. Już sam dojazd autem do twierdzy dostarczał nie małych wrażeń! Uliczki starego miasta sa wąskie, krete, strome. Całość bardzo ciekawie wyglądało. Jadąc autem nalezy zwracać uwage na zmaki, bo ulice bywają jednokierunkowe. Twierdz jeszcze piekniej prezentuje się z głównej szosy, bo widac ją wznosząca się nad wąwozem. Povijesni lokalitet. I prekrasan pogled na dolinu. Great for a short visit plus has a nice view from the hilltop. Read up on the history, it's worth it :) Amazing view, must visit when in Drniš or near by. Great spot and place with amazing wiew and landscape on river Čikola canyon, Petrovo field, and City Drniš! Worth visit! You have and litlle park for kids play! Super! Nice little ruin on the cikola river can get a great view down the vally and there is a small window on the ruins that makes for a very dramatic shot Zanimljiva lokacija, održavan okoliš te edukacijske table koje govore o povijesti kraja. Pogled je predivan, vrijedan posjeta. Sweet viewpoint Nice find, great views. Nice restaurants nearby. It's a little tight driving here, some tight streets to maneover in, worth parking a bit away and walking. Would be worth a visit at night when they light it up. The coolest in Croatia! The road going here is a bit sketchy, and like another reviewer said, it's best to park your car when you first see the and walk the rest of the way (about 10-15 minutes on a loose gravel path with significant elevation changes). But once you get there, it's otherworldly. Enjoy the views from the old windows. But watch your step: the old wooden platforms have become rotted and can be quite hazardous. It's a bit of a walk up the hill, but it's well worth it in the end.
