Budva sights for exploring the old town: walls, churches, museums and cultural sites.
1 / 6 The Old Town is the most concentrated part of Budva for walking, history and an evening out. Ramparts, squares, churches, museums and small streets make it a good starting point, whether you are visiting for the first time or have only a few hours.
1 / 3 The Citadel, formerly Kaštel Fortress, is in the southern and highest part of the Old Town. It completes the circuit of town ramparts and offers a good view of the coast and the roofs of the historic centre.
1 / 4 The Old Town ramparts shape Budva’s distinctive silhouette and connect towers, gates and the fortress. They make most sense as part of a visit to the historic centre, together with the Citadel and the waterfront beside Ričardova glava.
1 / 2 Budva Town Museum is in a 19th-century house in the Old Town. Permanent archaeological and ethnographic exhibitions help put a walk around town into a wider context, while the lapidarium on the ground floor is particularly interesting for a short visit.
Budva Modern Gallery is in the Old Town and adds a contemporary exhibition programme to a visit around town. It is a good stop when you want a quieter cultural break between walks around the squares and waterfront.
View detailsThe memorial house preserves the memory of Budva writer and politician Stefan Mitrov Ljubiša in the house where he was born. It is a small but substantive stop for visitors interested in the town’s cultural story as well as its scenery.

1 / 2 The Church of St John is one of the key religious sites in the Old Town. It stands beside the remains of an early Christian basilica, making it easy to visit during a circular walk through the historic centre.
1 / 4 Santa Marija in Punta is among the oldest pre-Romanesque churches on the coast. Its position beside the sea and ramparts makes it a natural stop at the end of a walk through the Old Town.
1 / 3 The Church of the Holy Trinity, dating from the early 19th century, is recognisable by its bell gable and dome. It is in the Old Town itself, making it easy to combine with the surrounding squares, the Citadel and museum facilities.
1 / 3 The ancient necropolis near the Avala area is a reminder that Budva has layers of history much older than today’s holiday resort. For fuller context, combine this site with Budva Town Museum and its archaeological collection.
