Jadro excursion site-park

The history of Solin, Split and the surrounding area is closely connected to the river Jadro, which is rich in drinking water, and this significance has been maintained until today. However, apart from the fact that the river that rises at the foot of Mosor was and remains an important source of water for the surrounding population and settlements, its value is much greater. Along the river there are many valuable monuments of ancient and Croatian history, as well as natural and industrial heritage of the recent era. As part of the “Jadro-spring of life” project, all these motifs of the river are integrated. The Jadro excursion site
unites the economic, cultural and natural wealth that the river has signified throughout history and the cultures that lived along it and preserved it in its original form.

The Jadro River was an inexhaustible inspiration for the planning of the excursion site, where it plays the main role of the narrator who tells all the important events in the first person, from the very beginnings, all the way to the present day. It guides visitors through all the corners of time that it has witnessed. The symbolism of the continuous
flow, which was there before us and will be there long after our time, is the link that allows us to tell the story with a line that creates so many different shapes and leads the visitors through different spaces in an innovative way so that visitors get a
complete experience and immersion to the understanding of the river that means life. Sometimes moderate and mild, sometimes unpredictable and complex, the line is also a symbol of time seen through the eyes of the Jadro, which has remained preserved through the centuries and will be here for a long time as a valuable legacy that we preserve from oblivion for all those who are yet to discover the true greatness of this small river.
