Piedalbona, Medieval hilltop settlement in Istria, Croatia

The settlement extends across elevated terrain with stone buildings and narrow pathways that lead to panoramic positions overlooking the Adriatic Sea.

Piedalbona developed from ancient foundations into a strategic location during the Venetian rule of Istria between the 15th and 18th centuries.

The settlement maintains traditional Istrian architectural elements with limestone structures and influences from both Italian and Croatian heritage.

Visitors reach Piedalbona through a network of local roads connecting to major routes from Pula Airport, located 40 kilometers to the southwest.

The settlement houses numerous cellars carved into the hillside, which maintain constant temperatures for wine and olive oil storage throughout the year.
