About Split
In the area of Split, it is known that there were Greek settlements around the 3rd or 2nd century. However, the city's foundation is considered to be from the late 3rd and early 4th century when the Roman emperor Diocletian built his palace. Today, Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site remains the historic heart of the city.
Split, which is the second largest city in Croatia, has a long and rich history, which is even reflected in its name. Originally, Split was named Spalatum by the Romans. During the Middle Ages, the name changed to Spalatro, and the Italians called it Spalato. In the 19th century, the city was known as Spljet, before it was eventually given its modern-day name we know today.
