Korcula Island Croatia
Korcula
Island undoubtedly holds a privileged position among Croatian islands.
Here are perhaps even more legends, tales and monuments than anywhere
else. The island has a number of famous towns including Korcula, Lumbarda
and Vela Luka. The oldest written monument in Croatia, the "Lumbardska
psefizma", in Greek, was found in Lumbarda. According to legend,
Korcula was established by the Trojan hero Anthenor in the 12th century
BC. Korcula is, after Lokrum and Mljet, the third most densely wooded island of Croatia. There is much evidence of a highly-developed social life on Korcula even in the 13th century. The Statute of Korcula, signed in 1214, prohibited the slave trade for the first time in Europe. It also spoke about the order and management of the city. The famous travel writer, Marco Polo, was, according to some sources, born in Korcula.
