St. Michael’s Fortress hosts two stages on SHIP Festival, DECK and HULL.
The revitalized Fortress of St. Michael in Šibenik was declared a Cultural Attraction in 2014 by the Croatian Tourist Board and is the recipient of the prestigious Grand Prix award for public relations. It is the oldest of the four fortresses in Šibenik and, alongside the Cathedral of St. James, is the most significant cultural and historical monument in Šibenik. The medieval fortress is the source of the city, which is first mentioned in historical sources in the year 1066. Through restoration, it is now possible to explore all walls and towers with an audio guide, and for the first time, the underground areas of the fortress are accessible, where 3D mapping projections can be viewed. The fortress has also gained new contemporary features, including an exclusive open-air stage with 1077 seats facing the sea, offering a view of the city of Šibenik and the Šibenik archipelago.
Revitalizirana Tvrđava sv. Mihovila u Šibeniku proglašena je Kulturnom atrakcijom u 2014. godini prema izboru Hrvatske turističke zajednice te je dobitnik prestižne nagrade Grand Prix za odnose s javnošću. Najstarija je od četiri šibenske tvrđave i pored katedrale sv. Jakova, najznačajniji je kulturno-povijesni spomenik u Šibeniku. Srednjovjekovna tvrđava je izvorište grada koji se u povijesnim izvorima prvi put spominje 1066. godine. Obnovom je omogućen obilazak svih zidova i kula uz audio vodič, a po prvi put dostupni su i podzemni prostori tvrđave u kojima je moguće pogledati 3D mapping projekcije. Tvrđava je dobila i novi suvremeni sadržaj – ekskluzivnu pozornicu na otvorenom sa 1077 mjesta orijentiranu prema moru s koje pruža pogled na grad Šibenik i šibenski arhipelag.
