Presentation of Jablanica

Jablanica is the site of an important hydroelectric power plant and dam. The dam was bult in 1955 and was one of the most important post-World War II engeenering projects. The dam was frequently shown on postage stamps of the period.
The Neretva bridge was torn down in 1943 by Tito's partisans during the "Fourth Offensive" performed by the Axis forces to finish off with "Tito's state". In the retreat, Tito ordered tearing down all the bridges over Neretva, and the forces were pulled out over an improvised bridge at Jablanica next to a torn down railway bridge. The story is one of the most revered epos of the Second World War in Yugoslavia.
