    A small town with about 10000 inhabitants, beautiful viewpoints and old walls. Church ruins Crekvina: in the 17th century the inhabitants had to help without pay during the construction. A widow's plea to the Jesuits to be released so that she could feed her children was met with beatings with sticks. She cursed the building so that God might bring it down - and three times the church collapsed while it was being built. - Great story!

      Nice small town with great view, starting point for Kastav trails.
