Šibenik is a medieval town located in a natural bay at the confluence of the Krka River with the Adriatic Sea. During the last few years, it has become the cultural center of Dalmatia, primarily thanks to its great involvement in the direction of utilizing European funds for the purpose of revitalizing historical heritage. This thesis will try to draw attention to the newer part of Šibenik's architectural history – the one that is on the margins of the interest of researchers, visitors, and its residents themselves. These are examples of modernist architecture created immediately after World War II, which marked the process of industrialization, leading to the expansion of the city in the southeast direction, primarily in the Baldekin and Križ districts. The aim of the work is to show the key individuals, associations and design companies that shaped Šibenik in the post-war era, as well as to draw attention to the values that stand out in these entities, which are still not sufficiently explored and valorized. These conclusions will be reached by analyzing the historical context that precedes the mentioned period up to a direct insight into the current state of buildings that have become a kind of symbol of the mentioned districts and represent their inseparable elements to this day. The analysis will attempt to answer the question of whether, from today's perspective, there is a link between the structures of the historical center and the modernist solutions that changed its views forever since the middle of the last century.
