Presentation of Dubrovačko primorje

The municipality of Dubrovačko primorje (lit., Dubrovnik littoral; 2,216 inhabitants in 2001) is made of 20 villages. The seat of administration is Slano (579 inh.); the Italian name of the place, Islana, is not used nowadays. The municipality covers the northermost part of the "mainland" of Dubrovnik area of the County, due south of the access of Bosnia and Herzegovina to the sea.
In 1399, the Littoral became part of the Republic of Ragusa and there was a Duke (Prince) in Slano. The Ohmučević had a summer villa there; the family is known in heraldry for the Armorial produced at the end of the 16th century, allegedly a copy of a 14th centtury armorial, although it is not, but that was used as a model for several, later South Slavic armorials.
The municipality was recently in the headlines because of plans of the Croatian Navy to build a new harbour there.

Lijerica, also known as lirica or vijalo, is a local bowed musical instrument with three strings, similar to more famous, one-stringed gusle.
