Only between 17 and 30 people live in Hum. Described as the "smallest city in the world", it is a tourist attraction with its medieval cityscape.
Already at the time of early Christianity, the first settlements arose on the hill, built on the remains of even older castle ruins.
The layout and appearance of the town was laid in the 11th century when the fortress and the first row of houses were built. Hum was first mentioned in 1102 under the name Castrum Cholm. During the Venetian period, during the 16th and 17th centuries, the walls were renewed and reinforced with two towers.

Throughout its long history, Hum was one of the cultural centers of Glagolitsa writing. This script was used in the Hum area even until the beginning of the 19th century. The Glagolitic Avenue between Roč and Hum reminds of the development of writing.

Very tranquil. Parking is subject to a fee. But it is worth it
