    A picturesque village on the hill with stone houses and a small church, that's how you imagine a typical Croatian village.

        Dracevac is a small village 7 km east-southeast from Porec. According to the 2001 census, it has 130 inhabitants. The village has a good strategic position at the intersection of the local roads that connect the surrounding villages. The residents mostly work in agriculture and animal husbandry, and in recent years they have been renting out holiday homes.
        The wider area has been inhabited since prehistoric times, visible from the Illyrian ruins on the Bronze Age hills, Malovar, Picugi, Montizana. In ancient times the area belonged to the Ager of Porec. According to the records, the Dračevac settlement was established in the Middle Ages. In the Middle Ages it was surrounded by walls with a small fortress for defense. After being depopulated by war and epidemics between 1573 and 1577, Dracevac is inhabited by six families (Maurovalachs) as part of the organized settlement of the Republic of Venice. Immigrants are allotted fallow land and with their arrival there was a change in the structure of agriculture, animal husbandry was equally represented as agriculture. The population increased several times until 1622 when a new wave of settlement came mainly from Dalmatia, Montenegro, Albania and Friuli, Treviso and Greek Crete.
        Today, Dračevac is a small town with a variety of new and renovated holiday homes for rent. Most of these houses have a pool and nobody lives there during the non-renting months. Dračevac is one of the few places in Istria where most of the old houses have been restored and are open for rent.
