The Gligo Castle is located on the shady side of the Bobovišća bay. Its large courtyard is surrounded by the three wings of the castle and a large defensive wall to the sea. The top of the defense wall holds remains of a walkway. To the east, a square two-storey building stands out from the closed courtyard with several loopholes on the ground floor. It belonged to the Baroque section of the fortification. The oldest, southern part of the castle holds several defensive elements, as well as Baroque dormers in the attic. Marinčević-Gligo family emerges in the late 17th century. Their castle is a valuable Baroque fortification, at the time important for the defense of the harbor, as well as the interior of the island.
Gligo Castle is a protected cultural heritage of the Republic of Croatia.
