Three cannons stand on top of the rampart known as Kula Svih Svetih or the Tower of All Saints at Rampada Street. They are silent reminders of several historic battles that occurred in the Pelješac Strait. For example in 1298, 180 navy ships fought here between the fleets of Venice and Genoa. Native son Marco Polo was imprisoned after this Battle of Curzola. While in jail, he wrote his famous book on his world travels.
