Mormont Glorijet (circa 1814) in Trogir, Croatia. Was built in honor of Marmont, the Napoleon Marshall. UNESCO site
Napoleon took power over Dalmatia from 1806 to 1814 and created the Illyrian provinces. Close to Kamerlengo, a "gloriette" was built to remind the glory of Marmont, chief Marshall of Napoleon's armies in Illyria. The French "gloriette", used for a small round pavilion with colonnades in a park, is written "Glorijet" in Croatian.
