The Earthquake
The earthquake struck at around 8:00 AM on April 6, 1667. It was preceded by a series of foreshocks, which caused some damage but did not cause any serious injuries. The main shock lasted for about 30 seconds and was felt throughout the region.
The earthquake caused widespread damage to buildings and infrastructure. In the city of Dubrovnik, the walls were badly damaged and several buildings collapsed. The earthquake also caused a tsunami, which flooded the coastal areas of Dalmatia.
The Aftermath
The earthquake caused a great deal of damage and loss of life. In Dubrovnik, over 3,000 people were killed and over 5,000 were injured. The earthquake also caused widespread damage to the city's infrastructure, including the walls, churches, and palaces.
The earthquake had a lasting impact on the region. The city of Dubrovnik was rebuilt, but it never fully recovered from the damage caused by the earthquake. The earthquake also caused a change in the political landscape of the region. The Ottoman Empire, which had previously controlled Dalmatia, was weakened by the earthquake and was eventually forced to cede control of the region to the Venetian Republic.
Legacy
The Great 1667 Dalmatia Earthquake is still remembered today as one of the most devastating earthquakes in European history. The earthquake caused a great deal of damage and loss of life, and it had a lasting impact on the region. The earthquake is a reminder of the power of nature and the importance of being prepared for natural disasters.
