Grad Korčula i ove je godine sudjelovao u manifestaciji Noć tvrđava – Night of Fortresses Goes Green, koja povezuje kulturnu baštinu, održivi turizam i podizanje svijesti o važnosti očuvanja fortifikacijske baštine. / The City of Korčula once again participated in the Night of Fortresses – Night of Fortresses Goes Green initiative, which connects cultural heritage, sustainable tourism, and awareness of the importance of preserving fortification heritage.

HR Program se održao 8. i 9. svibnja 2026. godine u povijesnoj jezgri Korčule, gdje su posjetitelji imali priliku upoznati bogatu obrambenu i kulturnu povijest grada kroz kulturne i edukativne aktivnosti.
U sklopu programa održani su dani otvorenih vrata Gradskog muzeja Korčula, kule Revelin i Marko Polo Centra, dok je u kuli Revelin prikazana video projekcija o povijesti grada i njegovoj kulturnoj tradiciji.
Poseban dio programa bila je nova koncepcija postava moreške „Ljubav i rat“ u kuli Revelin, nastala u suradnji mladih umjetnika Andra Tasovca i Paule Petković, uz podršku Gradskog muzeja Korčula, Grada Korčule i agencije KORA te kulturnih društava HGD Sveta Cecilija i KUD Moreška Korčula.
Izložbeni program proširen je i na ulice Staroga grada kroz izložbu „Korčula nekad“, koja je povijesnim fotografijama postavljenima na platnima pretvorila gradske ulice u jedinstvenu otvorenu galeriju.
Manifestacija je uspješno povezala interpretaciju kulturne baštine, suvremeni umjetnički izričaj i održivi pristup kulturnom turizmu te dodatno približila fortifikacijsku baštinu građanima i posjetiteljima.

EN The programme took place on 8 and 9 May 2026 in the historic Old Town of Korčula, where visitors had the opportunity to explore the city’s rich defensive and cultural history through cultural and educational activities.
As part of the programme, open days were organized at the Korčula Town Museum, the town towers, and the Marco Polo Interpretation Centre, while a video screening in Revelin Tower presented the history of the city and its cultural traditions.
A special highlight of the programme was the new exhibition concept “Love and War” in Revelin Tower, dedicated to the traditional Moreška sword dance. The exhibition was created in cooperation with young artists Andro Tasovac and Paula Petković, with the support of the Korčula Town Museum, the City of Korčula, KORA agency, and local cultural associations HGD Sveta Cecilija and KUD Moreška Korčula.
The exhibition programme was additionally expanded into the streets of the Old Town through the “Korčula Once Upon a Time” open-air exhibition, featuring historical photographs displayed on canvases throughout the town.
The event successfully connected cultural heritage interpretation, contemporary artistic expression, and sustainable cultural tourism, bringing fortification heritage closer to both residents and visitors.

The City of Korčula is organizing this event as part of the FORTIC project – From remains Of the war to the aRchiTecture of peace in the cross-border area of Italy-Croatia, which aims to strengthen the role of Adriatic cross-border cultural heritage by recognizing and valorizing European best practices in fortified heritage management.
The FORTIC project is part of the EU’s Interreg Italy – Croatia 2021-2027 Programme, which prioritizes culture and sustainable tourism as drivers of economic growth, social inclusion, and innovation.
