Sažetak
Despite its scarce natural resources, the Republic of Ragusa managed to sustain its autonomy and economic prosperity throughout the centuries as a result of strategic use of diplomacy, skilled trade, and highly developed seamanship. Evidence of this can be found in the opulent cultural and historical heritage of the Republic of Ragusa, which has helped Dubrovnik secure the status of a world-known brand, and not only in the sphere of tourism. Along with famous cultural monuments which are regarded as the cornerstone of Dubrovnik's historical heritage (such as the City Walls of Dubrovnik, the Cathedral, the Rector's Palace, the Sponza Palace etc.), the city teems with many lesser-known – but not any less valuable – examples of historical legacy from more modern times, specifically the 19th and 20th centuries. These include fountains, parks, walks, public baths, gardens, etc. Among these, the Gradac park from the late 19th century stands out as a prime example of landscape architecture, where a costly bird park/mini-zoo was situated during the Interwar period. Since the eco-historical heritage of Dubrovnik is reflected in its very name, which stands for “oak forest” (dubrava) and which used to cover most of the city area, the paper will present a number of examples of Dubrovnik's landscape architecture that complement the city scenery and serve as an integral element not only of its standard historical, but its eco-historical heritage as well.
