Mokošica, Residential settlement near Dubrovnik, Croatia.

Mokošica extends along the coastline at sea level, comprising two distinct sections: Old Mokošica and New Mokošica, located 7 kilometers from Dubrovnik's center.

The settlement experienced significant changes during the Croatian War of Independence in November 1991 when Yugoslav forces entered the territory and occupied the area.

The name of this settlement originates from Mokosh, a Slavic deity representing fertility and protection of women in ancient mythology.

Regular bus services connect Mokošica to central Dubrovnik, operating along the Adriatic Highway with multiple daily departures for residents and visitors.

The area maintains both traditional residential patterns and 1980s urban development, featuring the historical Gozze-Giorgi villa alongside modern residential buildings.
