Abstract
This work contains an analysis of the construction of the Dubrovnik fortifications around the suburbs during the thirteenth century, primarily based on written sources. The construction of the final section of fortifications around suburb of St Nicholas was preceded by a long process of fortification system construction which accompanied the phases of the city’s urban growth in the thirteenth century, as well as the political, legal and social circumstances of that period.
