Abstract

Pucisca is a settlement situated in the the northern part of the island of Brac, turned to the channel of Brac, Omis and Makarska. The settlement originated from extracting stone. With its 1706 inhabitants, along with Supetar, Pucisca is the biggest town on Brac with original Mediterranean characteristics. Its white roofs are creating a true ambient atmosphere. The work with the stone and the life from it are handed down from generation to generation. Nowadays, a stonemason school is working there. Many palaces throughout the world have been built with the local stone from the renaissance age until today. The works (mainly sculptures) of contemporary domestic and foreign sculptors are set on many public places, which are from the same stone.
