Cultural and Historical Ensemble of the Settlement of Milčetići

Milčetići is a settlement on the island of Krk, in the municipality of Malinska-Dubašnica, in Primorje-Gorski Kotar County. It shows how a small hamlet gradually grew into a whole village, and dry-stone walls still define its paths and boundaries.

It first took shape around a hamlet in which an extended clan community probably lived. In the 19th century, when residential volumes and traditional forms of building were developing, part of that older core merged into a valuable group of several houses and ancillary buildings, and the settlement spread naturally into the surrounding space. The plots are separated from one another, and the paths are lined with dry-stone walls. Besides residential houses there are farm buildings, mostly stables, beside which are threshing floors. The houses are mostly single- and two-storey buildings with a rectangular plan and simple facades.

The settlement is a protected cultural property and is entered in the Register of Cultural Goods of the Republic of Croatia under the code Z-7289.
