Municipality of Perušić - Kaluđerovac

Kaluđerovac is a village located under Metlača Hill, next to the Lika, that is known for its pottery and interesting old rural architecture. During the 19th century, the inhabitants made clay pots which they traded across Lika, Krbava and Dalmatia. Nowadays, the village is almost unpopulated, and no one does pottery anymore.
