Rt Barbariga used to be called Cissana after the sunken Antique city Cissi, and it got its current name from the Venetian family Barbarigo.
The village is about twenty kilometres from Pula, and has already for a number of years been an attractive summer spot. In relation to previous years, today’s capacity is larger, the accommodation has been modernised and it offers greater possibilities.
The area around Barbariga is abundant with archaeological findings from Antique times, as well as the prehistoric era and period of early Christianity. It is still possible to see mosaics in the remains of the Roman house, which decorated the floors and walls, as well as the remnants of an oil works from the 4th century.
As a tourist destination Barbariga is orientated towards family holidays, and as a result offers suitably escorted events.
