:) Early summer (June and first weeks of July) or end of summer & early autumn (September and October) are the best periods for a visit, in my opinion.

The town by its current name - Medulin, was first mentioned in writings in 1150 and was already situated where the current old town is ... but much earlier, about half kilometer further, where is now the port, Hotels and some new apartment buildings, was the village called Mutila and a separated Roman luxury villa with auxiliary buildings that functioned like a little town. Then there are some prehistoric findings in the same coastal area ... there was always some action around this place :)

I don't know how old is that homestead.

Wow! Brilliant thank you!
I'm just duckduckgoing it now..lol...

I love historical places and great to know when to visit- after the pandemic is over too!

Got any recommendations for films/doco's/tv series set in the area- any period pieces? I LOVE my world movies...

I know small production documentary stuff I saw on TV here, but I don't know if there is something translated in English. I don't know about any movie set in this area. :) Movie production in Croatia is pretty small, and this peninsula never got an entire movie, maybe just appeared here and there ... maybe ... as far as I know.
