Stari Grad, Island of Hvar Old town Pharos, which was founded in 385 BC by inhabitants of Greek island of Paros, has been growing from the time of Roman Empire and specially from the late Middle Age.
The archaeological excavations have been performed for years in Stari Grad. Excavations exposed many parts of ceramics and mosaics from the time of the early Illiryan settlements, then partly belonging to the Greek and Hellenic culture, and from the old Rome to the Old and early Middle Age. In the time of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque, many churches and palaces were built, which are treasuring a lot of paintings and sculptures. That was the time of erection of city centres of exceptional shapes and beauty.
"This is not a classroom in its literal meaning, the field of education is the whole town with its multi-layered civilisation and culture."
