About About the place

The Roman Ruins of Poreč represent the surviving fragments of the ancient Roman Forum, dating back to the 1st century. The site consists of a few standing columns, sections of low walls, and scattered stone pieces, including a partial temple structure. While modest in size, the ruins offer a tangible connection to the city’s Roman past. Located near the sea and tucked away within the old town, the site is freely accessible and provides a peaceful escape from the more crowded tourist areas. Information about the site is limited, making it a destination best appreciated by those with a pre-existing interest in Roman history.

Tips by Locals

Accessibility

The ruins are located within the old town of Poreč, which features narrow, winding streets. Access may be challenging for individuals with mobility impairments due to uneven surfaces and limited space. The site itself is relatively flat, but reaching it requires navigating the surrounding streets.

Kid friendly

The site is open to children, but there are no specific facilities or activities geared towards them. Supervision is recommended due to the uneven terrain and the presence of ruins. Stroller access may be difficult.

Pet friendly

Pets are generally allowed in the old town, but owners should be responsible and keep them on a leash.

Food facilities/restaurants/cafes

There are no food or beverage facilities directly at the ruins. However, numerous cafes and restaurants are located within a short walking distance in the old town.

The place is so beautiful that I could not take my eyes off it. The place is a heritage building which has stunning architecture and the Victorian style walls are simply amazing. We visited the place on a weekday and it had a lot of people. But things were arranged in a proper way and we could have the tour nicely.
