The fortress of St. Nicholas is built at the sea on the island of Lulevac at the entrance to the port of Sibenik, on the left side of the canal St. Antoine. He owes his name to the Benedictine monastery of St. Nicolas, who was on the island before being destroyed to free the fortress. The fortress itself was erected at the request of the local population to the Venetian administration of the city for protection from the Ottoman ships, which since 1522, after the capture of Skradin, have often begun to enter the port of Sibenik. With 32 guns, size and impressive appearance, St. Nicholas really looks respectful.<\/span><\/h5>\n
