Skradin info
Skradin is a small town in the Šibenik-Knin county Croatia, with a population around 4,000 inhabitants. It is located in a beautiful canyon, at the mouth of the river Krka in Prokljan lake 17 kilometers from the city of Šibenik. Due to its favorable geographical position, fertile land and abundance of freshwater this area have almost 6000 years-long history of settlement. There was once an Illyrian settlement (Scardona) and was the capital of the Liburnians. It later became an important Roman administrative and military center of the region until it was destroyed during the migration period, and he was in the 9th century settled by Croats. In the Middle Ages, it was one of the seats of the powerful Croatian noble family Bribir-Šubić. Over time it has lost its importance as a center of the region, which was moved to the nearby Šibenik. Today, however, it has become a very famous tourist destination of Šibenik riviera, thanks to its natural beauty and the Krka river.
