Večka kula, Medieval fort in Starigrad, Croatia
The stone tower stands on a coastal promontory between Starigrad-Paklenica and Seline, with parts of its rectangular courtyard submerged in water.
Built around 1600 as part of Venetian fortifications along Podvelebitski canal, the structure protected the region from Ottoman invasions during the 16th century.
The fort belongs to the Register of Cultural Goods of Croatia and contains remnants of three stories with gun ports featuring angled side cuts.
Located near the beach, the fort remains open for visitors who can reach it through walking paths or by car with parking spaces available.
Narrow windows on the top level of the fort served as defensive positions, with architectural elements showing where wooden girders once supported multiple floors.
