Perched high on a hill, this historic fortress offers stunning views over the bay and city. Climb the tower for a breathtaking 360° panorama of Pula. Beneath the hill lies a fascinating network of tunnels that connects different parts of the city – a must‑see for history lovers!

The Pula Citadel is a peaceful historic site with stunning views of the city and the sea. Entry is €7 per person. You can walk straight into the charming old town. It's full of history, beautiful architecture, and offers a quiet escape from the busy streets below.

Staying in Pula for a week, my first visit to the citadel was an evening walk around the exterior. A steep walk up, with some uneven steps involved but worth it for the excellent views out across the town and the Harbour. This also gave good views of the smaller Roman theater (access was otherwise limited to this for some show preparations during my stay) Return visit to the interior later in the week was equally fascinating and filled in a lot of historical detail. Not just of the citadel but of the area surrounding it. Make sure you go up the central observation tower to enjoy one of the highest vantage points over the town. And for those seeking refuge from the summer heat a visit to the tunnel system underneath (included in the cost of admission to the citadel) is a must.

It was closed when we wanted to visit it but we could walk around it and see most of it. Obviously it is better to get a ticket and get in and see/learn more about the site.
It seems to be quite well preserved and big. There's a big parking lot nearby that you can use.

On top of a small hill. The winding road is steep at places and there are cars with no footpath to walk. The views are pretty good. There is a entry fee of 7 euro.

Nice and fun experience but where is your naval museum?? Where? You have zerostrasse which is interesting, there was a tram exibition, history of public tram transport, you can go up the watch tower on Kastel and its a great view and all but the naval museum is not there even though the ticket was for Kastel, zerostrasse, and the naval museum...

Very reasonable entrance fee that gives you access to the fort, the museum and the tunnels. Worth a visit and explore. Good panorama over Pula.

What an excellent site and museum at an incredibly reasonable entry price.
Tickets get you entry to the Citadel and Zerostrasse tunnels and were €7 each. 6/5/25.
A lot has been invested into the museum and exhibits, particularly the interactive ones on level 2. We loved learning about the history of Pula.
Didn’t quite understand why the exhibit in the zerostrasse tunnels was dedicated to the old city tram network, we thought it was going to be about the history of the tunnels. Nevertheless, was good!
