Faust Vrančić, born in Šibenik in 1551, was a man of a brilliance that made him a distinguished figure among the greatest minds of the Renaissance. He was the author of a five-language dictionary called The Dictionary of the Five Noblest Languages of Europe. In his work Machinae Novae Vrančić described 56 different contraptions and technical solutions.

Why not explore the islands? Take a ferry to Prvic island, get off at Prvic Luka, visit the memorial center of Faust Vrancic, the croatian inventer (16. century) of parachute.

Yes, he survived. 😉 You will discover many of his inventions, and it is also very interesting for kids. And of course, there are beautiful beaches to complete your experience of Prvic island.
