We continue our look at Split throughout history with the help of the Facebook group Split kroz povijest.
A couple of weeks ago Total Split introduced readers to the Facebook group Split kroz povijest. A group that has quickly become one of our favorites to follow, contributors in the group help us to experience or relive the days of yesteryear in the Dalmatian capital through the sharing of old photographs, documents, and customs of the city as it once was.
Some of the photographs shared over the weekend in the group have been truly spectacular, and we wanted to make sure everyone had the opportunity to experience our coastal city from the days of yore.
With that said, here’s a closer look at our beloved Split, in black and white.
