Vrbnik

The people of VRBNIK settled on a 48 m high rock, and over the centuries built every pathway, staircase of house to fit together in the harmonius whole of today's Vrbnik. This little town Vrbnik is one of the oldest settlements on the Island of Krk.
We should mention the LIBRARY BELONGING TO THE VITEZIĆ FAMILY, at 4 Placa vrbničkog statuta (Vrbnik Statute Square), which was bought by the Bishop of Krk Ivan Vitezić and his brother Dr. Dinko Vitezić, the people's representative, and left to the town of Vrbnik. The library holds more than 10 000 titles, of which the most valuable is one of two copies of the WORLD ATLAS by JOHANN DAVID KOCHLER. In Glavača Street there is a gallery where exibitions are held in the summer of works from the VRBNIK GRAPHICS ACADEMY.
An area famous of vineyards in Vrbničko polje, which one passes through on the way in to the town. Where there are vineyards there is also wine (something like smoke and fire). And what vine! It is called VRBNIČKA ŽLAHTINA and thanks to a few local producers it is now well known in Croatia.
