Republic of Dubrovnik and
Ston, which was one of the most important centres in that time. It was famous by the
saltworks that were the foundation of wealth and trade of the Republic of Dubrovnik. Saltworks in Ston are still active today, although the production has less significance then before. The thing that has never changed since the Republic of Dubrovnik is the manner of producing which is based solely on nature -
sun and sea. During our stay in Ston we will taste
