Brseč

Brseč is a medieval town of amazing stone beauty. Situated on 157 meters high cliffs overlooking the sea, this town is 20 kilometers away from Opatija and represents the end of the Liburnia Riviera.
 
From Brseč you can enjoy the view of the islands of Cres, Unije, Susak as well as Učka Mountain's most southern peak Sisol (835m), which can be reached by hiking trails. The hundred residents of Brseč today guard the memories of the town's rich history, tradition and the many famous artists and priests that came from this town. Among them is Archbishop Josip Uhač, Cardinal of the Holy Roman Church who was buried here in the Church of St. George. Brseč once lived from agriculture, wine-making, cattle-breeding and fishing but it is very interesting that for the past one hundred years, this town has not had any illiteracy.
