Narrow Streets in Sibenik. Amongst all Croatian towns on the Adriatic coast Ã
 ibenik is set apart by its unique location in a picturesque and open bay, at the mouth of the Krka River. Created initially as an ancient Croatian castrum, a fortification or encampment, at the bottom of St. Michaelââ¬â¢s Fortress that still dominates the town, Ã
 ibenik was mentioned for the first time in 1066, in a document issued by the most important Croatian ruler - the king Petar KreÃ
¡imir IV. Ã
 ibenik obtained the status of a native Croatian town in 1290, when the Diocese of Ã
 ibenik was established. (Sibenik, history)
