As you stroll by the city harbour of Mandrač , next to the bell tower, along the promenade in Karpinjan, or while visiting the Tourist Information Center in Novigrad, your attention will be drawn to the large freestanding screen showcasing historical photographs of Novigrad. Engaging information about the history and present of fishing in Novigrad will be presented in textual and video formats in four languages.
