Janjina (Croatia)
Janjina is a small village located right in the center of the Pelješac Peninsula, and municipality in the Dubrovnik-Neretva county in Croatia. Janjina includes a tiny fishing harbor, a hamlet called Zabreže (Behind the hill), the name describing its situation, and is divided into five parts: Gornje Selo (The Upper Village) comprising Lovrovići, which, together with Bara, are known to exist at least since the 4th century AD, while the three others, Jaspričići, Prišlići and Dežulovići, seem to have been established between the 15th and 16th century.
