Geocache Description:


bell tower
English The picturesque Ložišca with its world-known belfry
Lozisca is located in a very steep stone slope where grapes or olives could not be grown. It was populated by Krstulovic-Lozic families, who according to tradition, came over from Bobovisca in the 17th century. Other families followed their example and soon the new settlement had outgrown its place of origin. For centuries the Loziscans sorted out stone creating thus numberless piles of stone and built terraced fields by constantly snatching away from the karst patches of soil. Until the land reform the landlords possessed here the biggest and the most fertile lands while the tennant farmers laboured under hard conditions in their vineyards giving them two fifths of their products. When the old vines died out and the land was not fit to live on, the emigration to the World began. A village with over thousand inhabitants at the beginning of the past century is left today to only 288 inhabitants. There are many deserted homes and neglected vineyards. The panorama of the village would not be complete without the belfry of the Neo Romanesque parish church. To find the cache, first locate the middle door behind the big cross close to the starting coordinates. Read the four numbers above the hearts as ABCD.

Czech Pitoreskní Ložišca se svetoznámou zvonicí
Obec Ložišca založili osadníci ze sousedního Bobovišca v prudkém svahu na míste, kde se nedaly pestovat ani olivy, ani víno. Místní obyvatelé po staletí cistili pudu od vecne rostoucích kamenu a vršili hromady, aby ze skromného výnosu vápencových svahu až do pozemkové reformy odvádeli dve petiny na daních. Se stárnoucí révou a lukrativnejšími príležitostmi mimo ostrov se Ložišca zacalo vylidnovat. V posledních sto letech mestecko ztratilo více než dve tretiny z puvodního poctu asi tisícovky obyvatel. Spousta domu opuštene chátrá a vinice již léta nejsou obdelávány. Z dob nejvetší slávy však mestecku zbyla svetoznámá neorománsko-barokní zvonice, s jejíž nedalmátskou podobou se mnozí místní architekti dodnes nemužou smírit. Pro zápis do logbooku budete potrebovat najít nejprve velký kríž, za ním troje dvere a nad prostredními z nich, na kameni nad srdci ctyrmístné císlo ABCD.
