City of Gospić - Watermill in Ribnik

At the entrance to Lički Ribnik, crossing the bridge on the river Lika, on the left side there is a recognizable wooden mill, according to sources, one of the oldest in Lika. Protected as a cultural monument, after all its building elements were demolished at the beginning of the twenty-first century and almost completely disappeared, in recent years, with the funds of the Ministry of Culture, the mill has acquired its original outlines.
