Faith across eras
Orthodox Savina, Catholic churches and the traces of Ottoman Islamic rule belong to the same fortified landscape. Successive rulers changed institutions faster than they erased sacred memory.

Herceg Novi Then and Now
Imena i carstva su se mijenjali, a utvrđeni stepenasti grad nastavljao je da se prilagođava. Akvarel Antona Perka i savremeni pogled na Forte Mare čine to nataloženo vrijeme čitljivim.

Dublje u temu
Jedno zdanje, čitano fazu po fazu
Forte MareA salt-trade watchtower that eight sovereignties rebuilt on top of each other — and that has now spent seventy-four summers as a cinema.
Kanli KulaA prison whose inmates dated it for us — they scratched ships into the walls — and which now seats a thousand people watching films.
ŠpanjolaThe Spanish began it in a year they did not survive. The Ottomans finished it, and it still carries the name of the side that lost.
CitadelaIt closed the southern end of the defences for centuries, nobody is sure when it was built, and in ninety seconds in 1979 it went into the sea.
Sahat kulaSixteen metres of Ottoman gatehouse with a Russian bell, a Black Madonna and two dates that cannot both be right.
MamulaAn island that is almost entirely fortress, where 2,332 people were imprisoned and 130 died, and where you can now book a room.
ArzaThe third gun of a three-gun gate, garrisoned by ninety-two men, sold in 2009, and the only fortress in Montenegro you cannot get into.
Tajno brdoSecret Hill: a battlefield, an Austro-Hungarian gun position, a tunnel system, an execution ground and a Cold War bunker — all on the same 490 metres.City time machine42.4531° N · 18.5375° E
Herceg Novi: Castrum Novum, Castelnuovo, Herceg Novi
Names and empires changed; the fortified stair-city kept adapting. Anton Perko’s watercolor and a modern Forte Mare view make that accumulation readable.

How the city changed
Tvrtko’s foundation accumulated Ottoman, Spanish, Venetian and Habsburg walls and towers. The stair city, Forte Mare, Kanli Kula and Španjola still expose that sequence.

Istorijska hronologija
Kako se Herceg Novi mijenjao
1382.
Tvrtko I osniva „novi grad”
Bosanski kralj Tvrtko I podigao je grad kao utvrđenu luku, što pamte imena Novi i Castrum Novum.
Već sama zamisao osnivanja podrazumijeva i grad i tvrđavu.
1482.
Osmanski Castelnuovo
Osmanskim osvajanjem počela su dva vijeka u kojima su se utvrđenja, vodovodni sistemi i vjerski život više puta mijenjali.
Kanli kula pripada tom naslojenom odbrambenom pejzažu.
1538–1539.
Kratkotrajna španska vlast
Snage pod habzburškom komandom zauzele su grad, ali su ga osmanske trupe povratile naredne godine, nakon čuvene opsade.
Jedna jedina godina stvorila je trajno sjećanje na „špansku tvrđavu”.
1687.
Počinje mletačka vlast
Mletačke snage zauzele su Castelnuovo i uključile ga u svoj jadranski odbrambeni i trgovački prostor.
Italijansko ime u kasnijim zapisima svjedoči o tom dugom trajanju.
do 1905.
Perko slika obalu iz habzburškog doba
Akvarel bilježi Forte Mare u vrijeme kad se grad pod austrougarskom upravom spuštao ka radnoj obali.
Uporedite obris tvrđave, a ne piksele.
Danas
Utvrđeni grad postaje odredište vrtova i stepenica
Javni život Herceg Novog razliva se između tvrđava, strmih uličica, suptropskog rastinja i nekadašnje pruge pretvorene u šetalište.
Zahtjevna topografija jeste projektantski jezik ovoga grada.
