Lighting Giants, Uljanik Shipyard

Svjetleći divovi

At night, the giant cranes of Pula’s century-old shipyard turn into light installations, with light shows on the hour.

Uljanik Shipyard was founded in 1856 and is one of the oldest shipyards in the world still in operation. Since 2014, the giant gantry cranes in the harbor area have been transformed into the “Lighting Giants” by a lighting designer. They light up after sunset each evening and can display tens of thousands of color combinations, with special light shows on the hour. Admission is free. The best viewpoints are the waterfront promenade by the harbor and the beach near the arena.
