Saint Domnius’ Cathedral

Very nice building with beautiful golden interior. If you are able to climb steep stairs I recommend to visit the tower (costs extra), the view gives you a complete overview over Split. Great!

Absolutely stunning, this is a must see if you are in Croatia. I highly suggest taking a guided walking tour with an expert as there are so many aspects to this palace. You get a sense of feel of the history, the culture, the different times in the different centuries. This is a great place to visit for somebody who is into architecture, going back to the 15th and 16th century, where you can see the architectural influences going back into the generations, just based on the stones that were used in the different sections of the cathedral.

Little work to get up , if you have gone to the top of the Vatican it will be peanuts for you. It’s also less impressive, i didn’t like the guards at the entrance I find them rude , it’s also small but the courtyard is very interesting and you get a beautiful view of top

This is really quite a special place for those of Catholic faith. It's considered to be the oldest Catholic Cathedral in the world that remains in use in it's original structure, consecrated at the beginning of the 7th Century. Beautiful altars and paintings adorn the interior. It's well worth combining a visit here with the Bell Tower which provides you with magnificent views of the city.

My Experience of the Cathedral of Split – A Journey Through History Visiting the Cathedral of Saint Domnius in Split was a truly unforgettable experience. Standing in the heart of Diocletian’s Palace, the cathedral is not just a building – it’s a powerful reminder of the layers of history that have shaped the city. To walk through a structure that was once the mausoleum of a Roman emperor and is now a Christian cathedral still in use today was deeply moving. The contrast between its ancient Roman architecture and its sacred Christian function made the experience feel both timeless and alive. Climbing the bell tower offered breathtaking views of Split and the Adriatic Sea, but what struck me most was the feeling of being surrounded by centuries of faith, art, and resilience. The carved wooden doors, the stone columns, the quiet atmosphere inside – everything spoke of a long and rich story that continues to this day. For me, the cathedral was the highlight of my visit to Split. It brought history to life in a way few places can. If you're seeking a place where the ancient and the spiritual meet, this cathedral is an experience not to be missed. ZazaPress

Very nice historic cathedral located within the Diocletian Palace in Split. There is a fee to enter the church as well as another small fee to climb up the bell tower. At times, there can be a small wait to get inside. You will likely need to put on a cover if you're wearing shorts sleeves or tank tops.

I was very disappointed with the service I received. The staff member sold me the wrong ticket, and when I pointed it out, I calmly explained that I was even willing to pay the price difference for the correct one. Unfortunately, she said she couldn't refund me or charge me just the difference — instead, I would have to buy a whole new ticket. It felt like total disregard for the situation. There was no flexibility, no attempt to solve the issue, just a flat "no." This kind of attitude really takes away from the experience.

This Catgedral seems to be a special place for those of Catholic faith. It was claimed to be the oldest Catholic Cathedral in the world that remains in use in it's original structure, consecrated in the 7th Century. We did not go inside as we didn't have time, but many seemed to have enjoyed visiting inside. Still the outside was breathtaking within the magnificent views of the city. Highly recommended. But do go early to avoid crowd and the sun. We came upon the traditional singers of Split/croatia...and they sounded angelic...at the nearby domed structure
