"The most important public building in the time of the Ragusan Republic, the Rector’s Palace was home to Dubrovnik's ruler during his one-month mandate, the period when he was separated from his family to focus solely on matters of state. An inscription above the doorway to the meeting room says it all: "Forget your private concerns when working for the public." Today, the magnificent Venetian-style palace is a cultural history museum."

Lots to see. Great building. I particularly enjoyed the exhibition of the war photos. Very moving. PS if you want to see the walls,it's better to buy a Dubrovnik pass. You'll have a few museums included too.

Stepping into this historic palace is like traveling back in time. The architecture is stunning, and the exhibits are fascinating. It’s a peaceful retreat with a rich history that’s palpable in every corner. A must-visit for anyone exploring the city! Plan ahead since you need tickets.

This Beautiful palace museum is one of the must-visit places in Dubrovnik. It has a beautiful central courtyard where the main staircase, clock, and bell are located, along with many decorated rooms featuring antique furniture and ancient artifacts.

Place is interesting, not big. Not a must but a good time killer. Most interesting are the rare iron chests and the courtyard + exhibit on the 90's bombing of the city. Everything else are pretty similar to any other European Palace/House/Manor.

The Rector’s Palace is included in the city pass and worth going only if you’ve got the time to kill. Highly suggest you go before noon. I went particularly to see the signature Game of Thrones’s white staircase. It was beautiful under the sunlight and loved its texture and colour. But it was a popular photo spot and was impossible for me to take a solo shot as visitors appeared in all angles of the frame without paying respect and attention to the others. A real pity and disappointment! Other than that, there were some insightful historical reserves such as the prison cellar. Exhibits such as jewelleries and furnitures from the old Palace were quite scattered and not well curated. I was a bit lost and confused in the rooms without proper text or audio guidance!

The museum was larger than I thought it would be. The dungeon war really interesting to see and I really enjoyed the installment of photos from the Homeland War. What we didn't like: you were supposed to download an app as a guide. We didn't know we would have to bring headphones. Although you can read what is being said, it takes up a lot of memory space and isn't very easy to use. I ended up giving up on it and just reading the signs on the walls.
