Dubrovnik Airport: An Archaeology Site
August 11th 2008 02:57 pm
Dubrovnik Airport has a brand new attraction that will make you wish your flight was delayed. It’s called Durovic’s Cave and it’s an archaeological site that dates back to the Iron Age. Opened last week, the cave lies 25m under the airport runway and is 156m long. Scientists have known about the cave for a long time as it was used as a shelter until 1962 when the entrance was closed. Excavation has been going on for seven years now and it’s not finished. Eventually there will be a modern entrance to the cave and multimedia exhibits centering on the creation of the universe. Only in Dubrovnik.
As of now, the cave is only open by appointment to guided groups but that will change.
