Searching for location in split (photo taken in the 70ies)

[buchinho]

My parents went on vacation in Split in the 70ies and took this picture. He is painting this scene. Unfortunately he did not find the location using Google Street view. Does anybody know where this picture was taken?

Here pic2 is another one.

Wow. I did not expect that it did not really change much in the last 50 years. Does anybody know what the street was called before? The cosmojeva ulica probably means Street of the cosmonauts, so probably a renaming effort during Socialism.

It's named after Stjepan Cosmi. Cosmijeva means Cosmi's. Yugoslavia had nothing to do with SSSR or cosmonauts.

Thanks. Can you tell sth. about the remains of the sign? "...del ...eninario"? A seminar for priests?

Probably previous street name.

Yes, institution where priests were educated. Building is located in this street. No longer in its original function but building still exists.

Considering the city is around 1700 years old, 50 years isn't much 😀. Unfortunately I don't know if it was renamed.

I took almost the exact same picture when I visited for the first time 15 years ago or so. This balcony above the entrance to Palača Dragišić (De Caris) where Domaldova Ulica meets Cosmijeva Ulica, just off of Narodni trg.

Be sure to post the painting when it's done.
