Wall Art and Photo Gifts from Fine Art Storehouse
St. Lawrence Fortress. Dubrovnik
Fort Lovrijenac or St. Lawrence Fortress often called Dubrovniks Gibraltar. It has a triangular shape with three levels and was defended with 10 large cannons, being the largest and most famous called " Lizard". The walls facing the sea are up to 12 meters thick, but on the eastern side of the fortress facing Dubrovnik the walls are only 60 centimetres thick. Such construction was done purposely, in case the Fort was taken by an enemy it could easily be destroyed directly from the city walls and fort Bokar.
Fort Lovrijenac doubles as the Red Keep in Kings Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms. Lots of the scenes are filmed at this Fort including the tournament thrown in honour of King Joffreys name day in season two

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the magnificent St. Lawrence Fortress, also known as Fort Lovrijenac or Dubrovnik's Gibraltar. With its triangular shape and three levels, this fortress stands as a symbol of strength and resilience. Its defense system consisted of ten formidable cannons, with the most renowned one named "Lizard". The walls facing the sea boast an impressive thickness of up to 12 meters, while those on the eastern side are intentionally thinner at only 60 centimeters. This strategic construction allowed for swift destruction from within Dubrovnik's city walls and fort Bokar in case it fell into enemy hands. Beyond its historical significance, Fort Lovrijenac has gained international fame as it serves as the iconic Red Keep in Kings Landing, capital of the Seven Kingdoms in Game of Thrones. Many memorable scenes were filmed within these ancient walls, including the grand tournament held to celebrate King Joffrey's name day during season two. This remarkable photograph captures both the rich heritage and cinematic allure that surround Fort Lovrijenac. It invites viewers to appreciate not only its architectural splendor but also its role in popular culture. Displaying this print will transport you to a world where history intertwines with fantasy, making it a perfect addition for admirers of Croatian beauty and fans of epic storytelling alike.
