This column of pillar was a historical artefact built during the Roman times. It remains standing strong and tall, having survived the earthquake in the 6th century. We are really fortunate that it remains so well preserved and allows us to learn the history of Zadar through these ancient monuments.

This is known as the pillar of shame as in the past, people who committed crime would be persecuted and tied up to the column. The good people can then come over and humiliate and denounce the person tied to the pillar. Eventually, people believed that there was a devil in the pillar and placed a stone tablet with a cross to chase the devil away. The pillar eventually became a good symbol of the community.

Behind the pillar, lies the remains of an ancient temple. What’s left is the floor of the temple and three statue heads, one of which belonged to Medusa.

There are no information board to explain the significance of the pillars, and one needs to rely on tour guides or online research to know more about the history. Hopefully something the government...

La Colonna della Vergogna a Zadar è un affascinante monumento storico situato nel cuore del centro città, precisamente in Piazza Papa Giovanni Paolo II. Questo antico monumento medievale gioca un ruolo cruciale nella storia e nella cultura della regione. Collocata in una posizione centrale e ben visibile, la Colonna della Vergogna si trova vicino ad altri luoghi storici importanti, come il Pozzo e la Fontana di Piazza Giovanni Paolo II. Realizzata in pietra, la colonna si distingue per il suo design sobrio e austero, privo di ornamenti elaborati. Questo aspetto semplice, ma imponente, riflette la severità delle punizioni pubbliche che un tempo erano inflitte qui. Originariamente, la colonna serviva come strumento di giustizia pubblica: i condannati erano esposti su di essa per ricevere umiliazione pubblica, un metodo volto a fungere da deterrente e a mantenere la giustizia visibile. Questo modo di fare rifletteva le norme sociali e le pratiche giudiziarie dell’epoca, rendendo la giustizia un’esperienza collettiva. Oggi, la Colonna della Vergogna è un’importante attrazione turistica che offre uno spaccato sulla storia e sulle pratiche sociali del passato. La sua posizione centrale e la sua conservazione la rendono un simbolo di continuità storica e culturale, permettendo ai visitatori di riflettere sul passato della città. Facilmente accessibile e ben integrata nel tessuto urbano di Zadar, la Colonna della Vergogna rappresenta un punto di riflessione imperdibile per chiunque desideri comprendere la storia medievale della città e le dinamiche sociali di quel periodo. In sintesi, la Colonna della Vergogna, pur nella sua semplicità architettonica, è un pezzo importante di storia che continua a raccontare storie di giustizia e norme sociali. La sua presenza offre ai visitatori una connessione tangibile con il passato di Zadar, rendendola un elemento cruciale del patrimonio storico...

Pillar of shame (Stup srama) Στύλος της ντροπής Μια αρχαία πολυκαιρισμένη κολώνα με εμφανή τα σημάδια από τη φθορά του χρόνου αλλά και της ανθρώπινης καταστροφικής επέμβασης στέκεται στην άκρη μιας ιστορικής πλατείας της Κροατίας. Πρόκειται για έναν εντυπωσιακό διακοσμητικό κίονα (κορινθιακού ρυθμού) του 3ου αιώνα, που στέκεται ακόμη στη βορειοδυτική πλευρά του ρωμαϊκού φόρουμ. Δεκατέσσερα μέτρα ύψος και αρχαία ρωμαϊκή καταγωγή, η στήλη μετατράπηκε σε «Στύλο της ντροπής» το Μεσαίωνα. Απετέλεσε, δηλαδή, τον τόπο τιμωρίας οποιουδήποτε ταραχοποιού, κλέφτη ή παραβατικού πολίτη. Οι παραβάτες αλυσοδένονταν στη στήλη, χλευάζονταν, ταπεινώνονταν ή μαστιγώνονταν και έμειναν εκτεθειμένοι στο κοινό. Οι τιμωρίες μερικές φορές διαρκούσαν για ώρες και τις περισσότερες φορές ολόκληρη η πόλη περνούσε για να παρακολουθήσει αυτό το θέαμα. Οι συγκεντρωμένες μάζες ευχαρίστως τους εκτόξευσαν ύβρεις καθώς και ένα ευρύ φάσμα αντικειμένων. Σήμερα η τοποθεσία, ένα από τα πιο δημοφιλή σημεία, δεν προκαλεί ανησυχία στον τοπικό πληθυσμό. Δεν χρειάζεται να νιώθει κάποιος ντροπή ή φόβο όταν πλησιάζει την κολόνα. Η χρήση του ως εργαλείου για δημόσιες τιμωρίες ανήκει πια στο παρελθόν. Είναι σίγουρο όμως η πλατεία αυτή του Ρωμαϊκού Φόρουμ του τρίτου αιώνα ήταν κάποτε το κέντρο της οικονομικής, πολιτικής και κοινωνικής ζωής της πόλης, συνέχισε να επιτελεί την ίδια λειτουργία το Μεσαίωνα και σήμερα θεωρείται ως ένα από τα πιο δημοφιλή σημεία του Zadar προσελκύοντας...
