One can approach it from the little Pile beach climbing the flight of stairs in the shadow of pine trees. The people of Dubrovnik built the fort in order to protect the western sea access to the City, particularly from the Venetian fleet. The construction began in 1018 and was completed in the 16th century. The thickness of the walls facing the sea is between 4 and 12 metres. Above the entrance is an inscription in Latin language: NON BENE PRO TOTO LIBERTAS VENDITUR AURO (Freedom is not sold for all the gold of the world). The fort houses a chapel of St. Lawrence, and its courtyard with a cistern serves as a magical venue for theatrical performances. A large number of plays has been performed here within the Dubrovnik Summer Festival programme. Compared with Elsinore, Lovrijenac Fort has become the perfect world famous setting for Shakespeares Hamlet. The fort is opened for visitors.

a do nje se dolazi s morskog žala "u Pilama", penjući se šumovitom stazom. Dubrovčani su sagradili tvrđavu da bi štitila zapadni morski prilaz gradu, poglavito od mletačkog brodovlja. Početak gradnje bilježi se 1018. godine, mada je ona trajala do 16. stoljeća. S morske strane zidovi dostižu debljinu od 4 do 12 m. Na ulazu u tvrđavu je latinski natpis: NON BENE PRO TOTO LIBERTAS VENDITUR AURO (Sloboda se ne prodaje ni za svo blago svijeta). U tvrđavi je Kapela sv. Lovra, a unutrašnje dvorište s cisternom čudesan je prostor za scenske izvedbe. Danas se na Dubrovačkom ljetnom festivalu ovdje izvodi veliki broj dramskih djela, a Lovrijenac je postao poznat u svijetu kao izvanredna pozornica i istoznačnica danskom dvorcu Elsinor za izvedbu Shakespeareovog "Hamleta". Tvrđava je otvorena za posjetitelje.
