The short history of the city of Trogir

A prehistoric Illyrian settlement at the end of the 3rd or beginning of the 2nd century BC evolved into the Greek colony of Tragurion; during the 1st century BC, it became the Roman municipium Tragurium.

From the 6th to the 11th century, Trogir was part of Byzantine Dalmatia, reduced to a few towns.

From the 11th to the beginning of the 15th century, Trogir recognized the rule of Croatian and Hungarian rulers, although it was occasionally under Venetian rule.

From the beginning of the 15th century until the end of the 18th century, the city was within Venetian Dalmatia.

From the end of the 18th century, except for a brief intermezzo of French rule at the beginning of the 19th century, Trogir was part of Austrian Dalmatia until the end of the First World War, after which it was part of Yugoslavia, and since 1991 it has been part of the Republic of Croatia.
