Fortress in Ulcinj

Ulcinj Old Town

A compact walled old town perched on a cliff above the Adriatic, with free entry and sea views from the ramparts. The stones here have seen Illyrian, Roman, Venetian, and Ottoman rule, and the atmosphere feels different from anywhere else on the Montenegrin coast.
