Croatia Holidays - Krasno
KRASNO, a village on a saddle between Velebit Mountain and the Senj Ridge in Lika; elevation 714 m. Chief occupations include farming and cattle breeding. Krasno is located
on the regional road Sveti Juraj (St. George) - Otocac.
Mentioned in written records in the 13th century. In Lomska Duliba, near Krasno, traces of the Roman culture were found. The Latin inscription carved in the living rock about
the border between the Illyrian tribes, the Ortoplines and Parentines, is particularly interesting. In 1527 King Ferdinand presented it to the church of Senj, which owned it up to
the Turkish conquest. It was settled again in the 18th century, and from 1790 it regained the status of the parish seat; the church of St. Anthony of Padua dates back to the 18th
century.
In Krasno (connected by a road only in 1992) is also the former parish church of Our Lady of Krasno, a famous pilgrimage church (the pilgrimage place of the Croatian
Army), first mentioned in 1641; subsequently reconstructed. The church has a coffered vault painted in 1759 by the Lukinovic brothers.
