Trdnjava sv. Mihovila
Najstarejša mestna trdnjava je pomemben kulturno-zgodovinski spomenik v Šibeniku. Srednjeveška trdnjava je bila izhodiščna točka razvoja mesta, ki se je v zgodovini prvič omenil leta 1066, zgrajena pa je bila zaradi nadzora in obrambe šibeniške lagune in ustja reke Krke. Impozantnost in moč štirikotnika, obdanega z obzidjem, zagotavlja trdnjavi vlogo dominantnega zaščitnika območja. Danes se lahko po trdnjavi sprehodite z avdio vodičem in si ogledate 3D-mapping projekcije v njeni notranjosti. Znana je po odru s 1077 sedeži pod odprtim nebom, ki je zelo kmalu postal eden najprestižnejših regionalnih odrov.

Trdnjava sv. Janeza (hrv. Ivana)
Trdnjava sv. Janeza je bila zgrajena avgusta in septembra 1646 v samo 58 dneh kot glavna točka novega obrambnega sistema mesta neposredno pred velikim napadom turške vojske. Trdnjavo so s svojimi rokami in sredstvi zgradili prebivalci mesta, in sicer po načrtu inženirja iz Genove, patra Antonija Lenija. Danes je obnovljena, v podzemnem delu pa skriva izobraževalni kampus. V toplih mesecih lahko tukaj spijete kavo ali pijačo z razgledom na mesto in širšo okolico.

Trdnjava Barone
Trdnjava Barone je bila zgrajena poleti 1646 hkrati z bližnjo trdnjavo sv. Janeza (hrv. Ivana). Zgradili so ju prebivalci Šibenika, in to v manj kot dveh mesecih, da bi okrepili obrambo svojega mesta pred Turki. Danes je mesto, kjer se s pomočjo tehnologije razširjene resničnosti ponuja pogled v preteklost Šibenika. Barone bar je popolno mesto za prvo jutranjo kavo ali pijačo ob sončnem zahodu, poletni večeri na Baronu pa so rezervirani za jazz koncerte, plesne predstave ali filmske večere pod zvezdnatim nebom. Vabljivo ponudbo predstavlja tudi trgovina s spominčki, v kateri lahko obiskovalci najdejo trajne spomine na čas, preživet v Šibeniku.

The Venetian Defence System
St. Nicholas Fortress, one of the newest additions to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, as an integral part of the 15th to 17th century Venetian Defence System, was constructed during the 16th century and located at the entrance to St. Anthony's Channel. Building of the fort was an important undertaking not only for the citizens of Šibenik but also for those who ruled it, as it was built in order to protect the town from Turkish attacks from the sea. The fortress erected at the entrance to the narrow mile long channel became the important strategic defensive structure that contributed to the impregnability of Šibenik Port and the town of Šibenik itself. The only entrance into Šibenik Bay was through the channel, which made possible the effective defence and complete control of the entry of ships.
The Fortress of Alla Moderna
In construction of St. Nicholas Fortress the military aspects were given more importance than the ornamental ones, however the fortress is still the typical Venetian creation of "alla moderna", an extraordinary example of the isolated defence work risen in the sea. The fortress was built after the plans of Venetian military architect Michele Sanmicheli, as white stone was used for building the lower parts of the fort and red stone for the upper parts. St. Nicholas Fortress until today remains one of the strongest and the most fascinating maritime fortifications built along the coast of the Adriatic Sea.
