Sažetak
The paper discusses the urban landscape and real property issues in the northern part of the city of Dubrovnik in the first half of the fifteenth century on the basis of data in two public registers concerning the real property of the commune – 'Libro delli terreni et delli afficti delli terreni del comun de Ragusa, del borgo sovra la via de della Plaça' (1382) and 'Tute le chase del comun de Ragusa e tereni e fiti che apartien al dito comun' (1417). Owing to the fact that almost the whole of the building land in the examined area was public property, the registers include a complete listing of occupants, building plots and annual rents. The houses were built contiguously, in elongated double-row blocks along the fifteen streets still running from St Nicholas Street towards the northern city walls. The completeness of the evidence made it possible not only to reconstruct the ground-plan dimensions of all single plots/houses and to correlate them with respective amounts of annual rents but also, to a certain extent, to grasp the social and professional circumstances of the inhabitants. The analysis of maps that were elaborated based on these data allows further discussion of different topics related to the urban development and the architecture of the habitat in the northern part of the medieval city district of St Nicholas (nowadays commonly called Prijeko).
