Presentation of Skradin

The municipality of Skradin (3,986 inhabitants in 2001, 619 in the village of Skradin) is located 25 km north-east of Šibenik, at the deep bay forming the mouth of river Krka into the sea. In the vicinity of the National Park Krka with beautiful waterfalls it is tourist center.
The town has history from pre-Roman period (Scardona); in the 5th century it was the seat of a bishopric. The town was several times much devastated in wars, especially in Venetian-Turkish wars, but also during the 1990s war.
Skradin was granted the Town statutes in 1997, even though the population is far less than usually required, due to its historical importance and tradition.

Among his many deeds that were recorded for the benefit of the church, he translated the Old Testament into the Latin text known as "Vulgate". The Croatian Institute in Vatican is nowdays named for him.
