Why it is worth your time
Stand before columns raised to Emperor Augustus two thousand years ago, when Pula was the Roman colony of Pietas Julia. Rebuilt stone by stone after a wartime bomb, it now shelters ancient statuary. Look for its mirror-image facade hidden in the town hall next door.
Croatia Atlas tip
Walk around the back: its twin facade is built right into the town hall next door.
