Rector's Palace in Dubrovnik, Croatia, is a stunning example of Gothic and Renaissance architecture. Originally constructed in the 14th century, the palace served as the seat of the Rector of the Republic of Ragusa, a maritime republic centered in Dubrovnik. The building has been restored several times due to damages from fires and earthquakes, resulting in a blend of architectural styles. Today, it houses the Cultural History Museum, showcasing an array of historical artifacts, portraits, and furniture that provide a glimpse into Dubrovnik’s rich past.
