 WHY IS NOVI (NEW) VINODOLSKI-"NEW"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
As historical evidences are rather scarce, no definite conclusions are possible, but experts think it is quite probable that the LOPAR fortification was a Roman, antique building, because the remains of Roman "terra silicata", Roman glass and coins were found here.
The Frankopans renovated the building and from then on this old fortification was used as a watch-and defense tower of Novi Grad, which was by the Frankopans turned into the centre of the Vinodol principality.
It can be noticed that all those names contain the word NOVI (meaning "new"), either as an adjective or as a noun and it necessary to explain its origin.
