What people say

"The Town Walls of Rab were originally constructed during the medieval period, with significant building phases occurring from the 9th to the 13th centuries. They were built to protect the town from potential invaders and to safeguard the residents and their property. The walls were designed with defensive features such as towers, battlements, and fortified gates, reflecting the military architecture of the time. The walls are constructed from local stone and vary in height and thickness. Notable features include several well-preserved towers and gatehouses, which were strategically placed to enhance the town's defenses. The walls also incorporate elements from different periods, showcasing a blend of Romanesque and Gothic architectural styles. Over time, various sections of the walls have been restored or reinforced to maintain their structural integrity and historical character."
