Dvigrad ("Twin-town"; Italian: Due Castelli, Istriot: Docastei), is an abandoned medieval town in central Istria, Croatia. It is located in the Draga valley. The history of the settlement is prehistoric; it remained inhabited until the 18th century.
The Regional Programme for Cultural and Natural Heritage in South East Europe is attempting to preserve and reconstruct the town.[1]
