Fort Lovrijenac or St. Lawrence Fortress often called Dubrovnik’s Gibraltar is a fortress and theater located outside the western wall of the city of Dubrovnik in Croatia 37 m above sea level. Famous for its plays and importance in resisting Venetian rule it overshadows the two entrances to the city from the sea and by land. Early in the 11th century the Venetians attempted to build a fort on the same spot where Fort Lovrijenac currently stands.
