🏝️ The fascinating history of the island of Vir: between projects and renewal

Connected to the mainland by a bridge since the 1970s, the island of Vir has undergone many changes over the decades. In the 1980s, the Yugoslav government announced plans to build a nuclear power plant on the island. This announcement led to a significant fall in property prices, encouraging a wave of construction. In the end, the plant was never built. However, in 2006, a large number of homes that did not comply with Croatian coastal development standards were demolished as part of a vast urban development plan designed to protect the environment and landscape of the Adriatic coast.
