Ruševina dvorca smještena na brdu iznad istoimenog grada, također je imala burnu povijest. Rimljani, a prije njih Liburni, izgradili su utvrde na istom mjestu. Iako zidovi potječu iz rimskog doba, ne brinite Novigrad je moderniziran. Ima nekoliko restorana i kafića na vodi, s kojih se pruža lijep pogled na luku. Smješten 31 km istočno od Zadra putem 502, Novigrad je bio crta bojišnice u nekoliko sukoba. Tijekom dinastijskih ratova (1385.-1387.) U današnjoj Hrvatskoj ondje su ubijene dvije kraljevske žene Marija, supruga hrvatsko-ugarskog kralja Sigismunda Luxemberga i njezina majka Elizabeta. Tijekom Kandijskih ratova (1645. - 1669.) bila je važna točka obrane Venecije od Turaka, koji su zauzeli grad tijekom 1646. - 47. godine. Kada su Mlečani ponovno zauzeli grad, dvorac je znatno uništen. Tijekom novijeg rata od 1991. do 1995. nakon raspada Jugoslavije, Srbi su također držali grad dvije godine. S ruševina kojima se može pristupiti s nekoliko staza pruža se još jedan spektakularni pogled na suvremeni grad i more. Najlakše je pronaći (opet, bez znakova!) Počinje s vrha nekih širokih stepenica koje se uspinju s istočne strane grada. Idite desno na vrh stuba, a zatim nakon 10-ak metara lijevo. Do dvorca treba oko 10 - 15 minuta.

very good!!!

I have been to Novigrad City and fell in love with the beautiful city walls constructed on the southern side of the city. The walls, constructed during the medieval times are preserved to date and their combination with the rocks makes the city an absolute beauty.
Angela
I enjoyed the summer concerts hosted during the summer months and the events fill the city with people from all walks of life making the atmosphere great.

Whenever we are in Novigrad, we enjoy the ever delicious seafood served by the coastal restaurants found everywhere, which keeps my family asking for more.

The experience we had during diving is compared to none, there are underwater museums rich in history.
