Landmarks

A hamlet within Rašćane, Veliki Godinj is a preserved cultural heritage site of Croatia. It is located on the northwestern slopes of the Biokovo mountain, some 2 km from the center of Rašćane. The settlement has a rural historical matrix, traditional architecture with stone houses, paved stone streets, water drainage channels, living quarters separate from stables and areas for threshing grain. It is a well-organized agricultural landscape without modern interventions.[5][6] A nearby chapel dedicated to St. Anthony has been built in the spirit of folk expressionism.[6]
