Boka Navy Kotor is a memorial organization residing in Kotor, originally founded as the oldest seafaring fraternity in the Adriatic and one of the oldest ones in the world.
According to historical indications, it was founded in 809 when the seafarers from Kotor received relics of St. Tryphon, a Christian martyr who was later declared town’s patron.
Over the last twelve centuries, Boka Navy has been subjected to numerous transformations – from humanitarian and military to memorial organization, in which form it exists today. During this time, its work was always guided by the ancient motto: FIDES et HONOR – FAITH and HONOR.
As such, Boka Navy is open to all who respect this motto and are willing to help preserve its traditional values.
