In a few sentences

In brief

Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque buildings coexist in the historic center.

Useful to know

Dubrovnik was a significant maritime center from the 13th century onward. The earthquake of 1667 caused severe damage, but the city retained monuments from different periods; there is also a later history of destruction and restoration. [1]

In description, do not turn the fortified silhouette into evidence that everything is left intact. Compare the city contour with the specific buildings inside it. Different styles can indicate the continuation of life after changes. The exact narrative also includes the restoration stages, rather than suppressing them because of the beautiful general view.
