Silk production – demonstration
Konavle is Croatia’s south-eastern-most region, bordered by Bosnia and Herzegovina to the north, Montenegro to the east, and the open Adriatic Sea to the south. The charming town of Cavtat serves as its main hub, while the rest of the region remains rural.
Your exploration begins in Cavtat, where you can enjoy a peaceful seaside stroll and visit landmarks like the Rector’s Palace, the Mausoleum, or the Bukovac House. Beyond Cavtat, Konavle’s rural landscape offers a unique glimpse into traditional life. The best way to discover local heritage is to visit the Konavle Heritage Museum in Cilipi. After stopping in this quaint village, the tour continues to the Ljuta River area. Here, you can take a leisurely walk through lush surroundings, visit old watermills, and
enjoy a meal at one of the riverside restaurants. Next, we’ll take you to the Sokol Grad, a fortress tracing back to ancient times.
For those interested in local crafts, the tour can be extended with a unique demonstration of silk production, showcasing Konavle’s long-standing textile traditions.
Relax and enjoy a scenic drive that showcases the perfect harmony of natural beauty and human craftsmanship!
Konavle is also known for its silk production, a craft that dates back to the times of the Dubrovnik Republic. Even today, you can find locals carefully tending to silkworms and weaving intricate patterns, preserving this unique heritage.
