Perched hilltop, Barone Fortress represents a fortress built in 1646 to protect against Turkish attacks. Today, overgrown stonework is all that remains, but the view is second to none. Terra-cotta clay roofs dot the horizon, amid the lush greenery of this coastal town. Take in the view from the viewing terrace, or enjoy a picnic on the park benches. Along the footpath to the neighboring fortress watch for remnants of World War II bunkers.

Great place to visit if you are near Šibenik. Very nice and friendly staff, comfortable cafe just inside the place with local brewery. Don't forget to take an interactive augmented reality tour and listen to the history of the place, it's quite creative. The view from the place is amazing. You can see both the seaside and the city. Parking for the visitors is free and right near the fortress walls, but be careful driving uphill - the road is a bit stiff and narrow, some cars might be moving in the opposite direction at the same time

An impressive fortress particularly with the short time it was built. Great views over the town and surrounding islands. The ticket gave you access to those fort and the adjoining St John's Fort. You can also get a combo ticket for St Michael's Castle too. We discovered there were some parking spaces right next to the fortress, reserved for visitors to the fort. This wasn't clear when looking at the website.
