Mošćenice
A medieval stone village perched on a cliff 173 meters above the sea, overlooking the whole of Kvarner Bay and Cres Island.
Mošćenice is a well-preserved medieval fortified village built on a cliff about 173 meters above sea level. Its compact old quarter is made up of town gates, stone lanes and a church bell tower. The viewing platform in front of the church overlooks Mošćenička Draga Bay, Kvarner Bay and the distant island of Cres. The village has a museum in a former olive oil press and a folk collection. You can drive up the hill, or walk up the ancient stone steps from the beach at the foot of the cliff in about 30–40 minutes. Admission is free.
