Children’s Maritime Military Health Resort of Insured Persons
Location: Krvavica, Croatia
Completed: 1964
Architect: Rikard Marasović
Alternative name: Children’s Maritime Resort for the Treatment and Rehabilitation of Children with Lung Disease Insured Through the Military
Genre: Modernist, Socialist architecture, abandoned, former Yugoslavia
This abandoned medical resort on Croatia’s Adriatic Coast was established for the sole use of children who had a parent in the Yugoslav People’s Army and who suffered from breathing-related illnesses. It was the beginning of the Croatian War of Independence in 1991 that led to its resulting abandonment but not until after it became a shelter for refugees displaced by the conflict. Prior to this, the facility was strictly off-limits to anyone not connected with the military. More information about the Children’s Maritime Military Health Resort of Insured Persons.
