Maslinica, a village and harbour in the cove of
the same name, on the western coast of the island of
Solta. The coast around Maslinica is indented, with
a number of coves and small pebble beaches (Tepli
Bok, Soskova, Poganica, Vela Luka). A local road
connects Maslinica with other places on the island.
The cove provides docks for smaller yachts and is
well protected from all winds.
A four-storey tower with loopholes (located in the
cove) dates back to the end of the 17th century. A
two-storey Baroque castle with a quadrangular yard
was attached to it in 1708; above the main gate is
an inscription with the coat of arms of the
Martinis-Marchi family. The fishermen's village
developed on the coast during the 18th century. - On
the islet of Stipanska are the ruins of the early
Christian basilica of a longitudinal ground-plan
with a semicircular apse. |
