Rural Ensemble of the Settlement of Kremenići

Kremenići is a settlement on the island of Krk, in the municipality of Malinska-Dubašnica, in Primorje-Gorski Kotar County. It is interesting as an example of a scattered village in which skodi, šterne (cisterns) and threshing floors have been retained.

The village grew around the crossing of several paths, and with the later development of the main road it stretched in a north-south direction. Most houses are arranged in rows, and many have preserved the traditional marks of skodi and cisterns. The compact complex by the crossroads stands out in particular. Around the houses, farm buildings, stables and several threshing floors are still visible, and the wider surroundings consist of agricultural plots enclosed by dry-stone walls. The houses are mostly single- and two-storey buildings with a rectangular plan, simple facades and gabled roofs. The settlement dates from the 18th century.

The ensemble is a protected cultural property, entered in the Register of Cultural Goods of the Republic of Croatia under the code Z-7290.
