Risan is the oldest town in the Bay of Kotor. It dates back to the 3rd century BC. Risan was the capital of the Illyrian Queen Teuta, the center of maritime affairs, crafts and trade of the Illyrian state. Traces of prehistoric life can be found in the Risan Bay.

According to legend, before the Roman invasion, Queen Teuta threw herself off the rock of Gradina, which is still outside Risan and gives the character of the acropolis. how to open the coffers of the Illyrian queen.
