Gornje Selo

Gornje Selo is a settlement in the inland area of Šolta island characterized by traditional stone houses and narrow winding streets. The village occupies elevated terrain with a prominent church and stone structures typical of the island's building heritage.

The settlement developed from agricultural needs in the island interior, particularly around olive and grape cultivation over centuries. These farming activities shaped both the economic foundation and the physical layout of the community.

The village architecture reflects traditional Dalmatian stone construction with narrow lanes that shape daily life for residents. The church and its bell tower stand at the heart of community life, representing the spiritual traditions of island living.

The village is accessible by regular ferry service from Split to Rogač port, then a short drive across the island to reach it. Spring through early autumn provides the best visiting conditions with stable weather and passable roads throughout the area.

A traditional oil mill remains active in the village where farmers process olives using age-old techniques to produce premium oil. Visitors can observe the pressing process and purchase locally made oil directly from producers.
