The Venetian Tower in Split (Croatian: Mletačka Kula) is the only tower that remains from the Venetian fort that was built in 1441 by the Venetians, and it served as a defensive fortress during the Venetian rule over Split.
The fortress itself originally had a pentagonal shape and multiple towers. The rest of it was demolished by the early 19th century, as its defensive purpose was no longer required. This octogonal tower still remained, along with a small stretch of wall that used to connect it to the rest of the castle.
The Venetian Tower is located south-west of Diocletian’s Palace along the shoreline (Riva), in Braće Radić Square (also known as Fruit Square). It can be walked around for free, but when it comes to climbing on top of it, it is not accessible to the public.
