Hvar Arsenal

The Hvar Arsenal is a historic building in the town of Hvar, Croatia. It was first constructed in the 14th century as a maintenance shipyard for the galley of the commune. Through the ages it was further expanded and gained additional functions. Most notable is the historic theater (Hvarsko Kazalište), built in 1612 as part of the first floor, above the galley space. Today it is a multi-functional building centered on the theater.
