Aržano, Mountain settlement in Split-Dalmatia County, Croatia.

Aržano is a mountain settlement in Split-Dalmatia County located at an elevation of around 650 meters (2,130 feet). The village sits in a highland area near the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The village developed as a highland settlement in a sparsely populated region and was home to herders and farmers for generations. The area experienced major changes during the conflict of the 1990s.

The annual Josip Jović Memorial Tournament brings together local residents and visitors for traditional six-player soccer matches in the village.

The village is accessible via regional roads connecting Split and other major towns in the area. Visitors should expect winding mountain roads and open weather conditions typical of highland settings.

The village holds significance as the home of Josip Jović, recognized as the first casualty of the Croatian War of Independence from 1991 to 1995.
