Medvednica's streams are typical rapid mountain streams where commonly come little fish species.


Potoci Medvednice su tipični brdski potoci bujičnog tipa u kojima uobičajeno dolazi malo ribljih vrsta.


Recorded are: Chub ( Leuciscus cephalus), and endangered fish species - Brown Trout Salmo trutta m. fario, Schneider ( Alburnoides bipunctatus) and Southern Barbell (Barbus meridionalis) .


Zabilježeni su: klen ( Leuciscus cephalus), te ugrožene vrste riba - potočna pastrva Salmo trutta m. fario, dvoprugasta uklija ( Alburnoides bipunctatus) i potočna mrena (Barbus meridionalis).


Although, compared to coastal region and Dalmatia , continental region of Croatia has fewer Reptile species (unlike reverse proportion when speaking of Amphibians), on Medvednica we can still find few representatives, which can be divided into two groups: snakes and lizards.


Premda je , u odnosu na Primorje i Dalmaciju , kontinentalni dio Hrvatske puno manje zastupljen vrstama gmazova ( za razliku od obrnutog odnosa kada se radi o vodozemcima ), ipak na Medvednici možemo naći nekoliko predstavnika , koji se dijele na dvije skupine : zmije i gušteri.


European Pond Terrapin (Emys orbicularis) has not been recorded in Nature Park Medvednica.


Na području Parka prirode Medvednica nije zabilježena barska kornjača ( Emys orbicularis).


In habitats closest to the Park it has been reported in Mirogoj's pond which was filled in around 1960.


Od staništa najbližeg Parku, zabilježeno je da je živjela u mirogojskoj bari zatrpanoj oko 1960.


About 70 nestling birds are recorded on Medvednica.


Na Medvednici je zabilježeno oko 70 gnjezdarica.


Birds on Medvednica are distributed and connected to certain forest biotopes: ornitofauna changes with elevation.


Ptice na Medvednici raspoređene su i vezane na pojedine šumske biotope: ornitofauna se mijenja s visinom.


In lower regions (where sessile oak, common hornbeam and sweet chestnut dominate) most often we can find Nuthatch (Sitta europaea), Blue Tit ( Parus caeruleus ), Long-tailed Tit ( Aegithalos caudatuss ), and Spotted Flycatcher ( Muscicapa striata ).


U nižim predjelima (gdje prevladava hrast kitnjak, grab, kesten) susrećemo najčešće brgljeza ( Sitta europaea ), plavetnu sjenicu ( Parus caeruleus ), dugorepu sjenicu ( Aegitalos cudatus ), te muharicu ( Muscicapa striata ).


In oak forests we can find Lesser Spotted Woodpecker ( Dendrocopos minor ), Golden Oriole ( Oriolus oriolus ); Golden Oriole was recorded even on elevation of 800 m in Gorščica region.


U hrastovim šumama naći ćemo i malog djetla ( Dendrocopos minor ), vugu ( Oriolus oriolus ); vuga je nađena i na 800 m nadmorske visine u predjelu Gorščice.


Hawfinch ( Coccothraustes coccothraustes ) likes hornbeam, maple and wild cherry forests, and feeds on its fruits.


Batokljun trešnjar ( Coccothraustes coccothraustes ) voli šume graba, javora brijesta, divlje trešnje, čijim se plodovima hrani.


Greenfinch ( Carduelis chloris ) is a common species in forests close to settlements, fields, and meadows, as well as Common Canary ( Serinus canaria ), and Goldfinch ( Carduelis carduelis) .


Zelendur ( Carduelis chloris ) je česta ptica uz rubove šuma u blizini naselja, oranica, polja i livada, kao i divlji kanarinac ( Serinus canaria ), te češljugar ( Carduelis carduelis ).


Near streams we can hear Nightingale ( Luscinia megarhynchos).


Uz potoke čut ćemo slavuja ( Luscinia megarhynchos).


Marsh Tit ( Parus palustris ) lives in moist forests with low layer of shrubs.


Crnoglava sjenica ( Parus palustris ) obitava po vlažnim šumama s niskim slojem grmlja.


In oak forests we can see Tree Pipit ( Anthus trivialis ), Common Treecreeper ( Certhia familiaris ), and Great Spotted Woodpecker ( Dendrocopos major ) – which is dispersed from foothills to the peak of Medvednica.


U hrastovim šumama susrećemo prugastu trepteljku ( Anthus trivialis ), kratkokljunog puzavca ( Certhia familiaris ), te velikog djetla ( Dendrocopos major ) – koji je proširen od podnožja do vrha.


In lower parts, in pure beech forest region, which follow oak forests, we find the least nestling birds.


U nižim predjelima u pojasu bukovih šuma, koje se nadovezuju na hrast i to u čistim sastojinama, nalazimo najmanje gnjezdarica.


In beech forests on sunny expositions with shrub layer, and in stream valleys we can see Chaffinch ( Fringilla coelebs ) – the most common nestling bird on Medvednica, Robin (Erithacus rubecula) , and Tree Pipit.


U bukovim šumama na sunčanim ekspozicijama sa slojem grmlja i u potočnim uvalama susrećemo zebu ( Fringilla coelebs ) – najčešću gnjezdaricu Medvednice, crvendaća (Erithacus rubecula) i prugastu trepteljku.


In stream valleys important are Red-breasted Flycatcher ( Ficedula parva ) and Wood Warbler ( Phylloscopus sibilatrix ).


U potočnim uvalama značajne su mala muharica ( Ficedula parva ) i šumski zviždak ( Phylloscopus sibilatrix ).


Near streams comes Blackcap ( Sylvia atricapilla ) – the most common bird on Medvednica, and Winter Wren ( Troglodytes troglodytes ).


Uz potoke dolazi crnokapa grmuša ( Sylvia atricapilla) – najčešća i najobičnija ptica na Medvednici, te palčić ( Troglodytes troglodytes ).


Populations of Dipper ( Cinclus cinclus) and Wagtails – Grey Wagtail ( Motacilla cinerea ) and Pied or White Wagtail ( Motacilla alba ) depend on the quantity of food in streams, that is preservation of natural state and lack of pollution in streams, because they feed, nest and spend most of the day next to them.


O količini hrane u potocima, odnosno o očuvanosti potoka u prirodnom stanju i nezagađenosti potoka ovise populacije vodenkoseva ( Cinclus cinclus) i pastirica - gorska ( Motacilla cinerea ) i bijela (Motacilla alba), jer se u njima hrane, gnijezde i provode uz njih najveći dio dana.


This especially applies to Dipper and its immediate habitat, since they almost never leave the stream (Kraljevec stream, Bistra stream, Vidak stream, Bliznec stream).


To pogotovo vrijedi za vodenkosa koji potok i njegovu neposrednu okolicu gotovo nikada ne napušta (potok Kraljevec, potok Bistra, Vidak potok, potok Bliznec).


In beech and fir biotope we encounter mountain ornitofauna, represented with the following species Hazel grouse ( Tetrastes bonasia ) – distributed on entire Medvednica, next to streams with plenty shrubs, Common Raven ( Corvus corax ) which is also one of the most rare birds on Medvednica.


U biotopu bukve i jele susrećemo planinsku ornitofaunu, koja je zastupljena vrstama: lještarka ( Tetrastes bonasia ) – rasprostranjena po cijeloj Medvednici, uz potoke s mnogo grmlja i šikara, gavran ( Corvus corax ) koja je ujedno i jedna od najrjeđih ptica na gori.


Common Buzzard ( Buteo buteo ) lives on the highest parts of Medvednica (Oštrica, Rauch's forestry, Goršćica).


Škanjac ( Buteo buteo ) nastava najviše predjele Medvednice (Oštrica, Rauchova lugarnica, Goršćica).


The most characteristic birds of evergreen part of Medvednica (fir forests on Oštrica) are Coal Tit ( Parus ater ), Crested Tit ( Parus cristatus ), Willow Tit ( Parus montanus ) and Gold crest ( Regulus regulus ).


Najkarakterističnija ptica crnogoričnih predjela Medvednice (jelove šume na Oštrici) jest jelova sjenica ( Parus ater ), kukmasta sjenica ( Parus cristatus ), te planinska sjenica ( Parus montanus ) i kraljić ( Regulus regulus ).


Steep rocks and cliffs, as well as trees with holes, are important for nesting of vultures.


Strme stijene i litice, kao i drveće s dupljama, važni su za gniježđenje ptica grabljivica.


Those are already mentioned Common Buzzard , Northern Goshawk ( Accipiter gentilis ), Sparrow hawk ( Accipiter nisus ), Hobby ( Falco subbuteo ) and Common Kestrel ( Falco tinnunculus ).


To su već spomenuti škanjac, zatim, jastreb ( Accipiter gentilis ), kobac ( Accipiter nisus ), sokol lastavičar ( Falco subbuteo ) i vjetruša ( Falco tinnunculus ).


From nocturnal vultures here comes Little Owl ( Athene noctua ), Long-eared Owl ( Asio otus ) and Tawny Owl ( Strix aluco ).


Od noćnih grabljivica, tu dolaze sivi ćuk ( Athene noctua ), mala ušara ( Asio otus ) i šumska sova ( Strix aluco ).


Besides mentioned, it is possible that other species of diurnal and nocturnal vultures live on Medvednica, but until now no research was conducted that would systematical analyze all vultures.


Osim navedenih, moguće je da Medvednicu naseljavaju i druge vrste dnevnih i noćnih grabljivica, no do sada nije rađeno istraživanje koje bi sistematski obradilo sve grabljivice.


It would be too much to count out all bird species that habit in «Nature Park Medvednica», so in the end we shall mention just one more, which if you see don't think it is some tropical species that escaped from a pet shop.


Bilo bi previše nabrajati sve vrste ptica koje naseljavaju «Park prirode Medvednica», pa ćemo na kraju još samo spomenuti jednu koju ako ugledate nemojte misliti da je neka tropska vrsta pobjegla iz kakvog ZOO dućana.


It is Hoopoe ( Upupa epops ) which nests in old trees, forest edges, near meadows, vineyards, orchards, and cultivated fields.


To je pupavac ( Upupa epops ) koji gnijezdi u starim stablima, rubovima šume, pored livada, vinograda, obrađenih polja i voćnjaka.


On Medvednica live a few groups of mammals.


Postoji nekoliko skupina sisavaca na Medvednici.


They are divided into insectivores (feed almost exclusively on insects), bats , rodents , beasts , and other mammals where deer, wild boar and rabbit belong.


Dijele se na kukcojede (hrane se skoro isključivo kukcima), šišmiše , glodavce , zvijeri , te ostale sisavce u koje spadaju srna, divlja svinja i zec.


Apartments are located near the sandy beach, in the quiet area of Lumbarda, on the outskirts of the village.


Apartmani se nalaze u blizini pješčane plaže, u mirnom predjelu Lumbarde na rubu naselja.


The sea is only 100m away, and grocery stores, money-exchange, banking machine, post office and restaurants 1km away.


More je udaljeno samo 100m, a trgovine, mjenjačnica, bankomat, pošta i restorani oko 1 km.

Olive is one of the oldest cultures appreciated even back in the times of the ancient Mediterranean.


Maslina je jedna od najstarijih kultura cijenjena još u doba drevnog Mediterana.


It is believed that it originates from the island of Crete from where it spread to Egypt, Greece, Palestine and other countries.


Vjeruje se da potječe s Krete od kuda se proširila na Egipat, Grčku, Palestinu i druge zemlje.


Olives are mentioned in the Bible, they are described in the Egyptian art and constitute an important part of the Greek mythology, and this discovers the importance they have in the life of various civilizations.


Masline se spominju u Bibliji, opisuju u egipatskoj umjetnosti te su važan dio grčke mitologije, što nam sve govori o važnom mjestu kojeg one zauzimaju u životu raznih civilizacija.


Olives are the fruit of the Olea europeaea tree.


Masline su plod drveta Olea europaea.


The name itself reflects the basic feature of this food product – richness of oil (Olea is a Latin word for oil), so it is no wonder that olives have been used for the production of olive oil for thousands of years.


Samo ime odražava temeljnu karakteristiku ove namirnice – bogatstvo uljem (Olea je latinska riječ za “ulje”), stoga i ne čudi tisućljetna upotreba masline za dobivanje maslinovog ulja.


The olive tree has been a source of food and fuel, wood and medicine since the ancient times.


Od drevnih vremena drvo masline je bilo izvor hrane, goriva, drvo i lijek.


It was considered a symbol of peace and wisdom.


Smatralo se simbolom i mira i mudrosti.


Olives cannot be eaten directly from the tree.


Masline se ne mogu jesti izravno s drveta.


Namely, because of the oleuropein, unprocessed olives contain natural bitterness which is decreased through special processing methods (debittering).


Naime, zbog sastojka oleuropeina neprerađene masline sadrže prirodnu gorčinu koja se smanjuje posebnim metodama obrade (odgorčavanjem).


Through processing, the amount of the bitter oleuropein substance is reduced enough to alleviate the bitterness and preserve its protective antioxidant features in the process.


Obradom se količina gorke tvari oleuropeina u maslinama dovoljno snizi da se ublaži gorčina, a da pri tome ostaju očuvana njegova zaštitna antioksidacijska svojstva.


The color and the taste of olives depend not only on the level of ripeness but also on the numerous processing procedures they are submitted to, including the fermentation and/or preservation in oil, salt water or salt.


Boja kao i okus masline nisu ovisne samo o stupnju zrelosti pri ubiranju nego i o brojnim procesima obrade kojima se one podvrgavaju uključujući fermentaciju i/ili konzerviranje u ulju, slanoj vodi ili u soli.


The afore-mentioned methods will cause not only the change of color into black, purple, brown, red or yellow but they will also affect the skin texture making it smooth and shiny.


Spomenute će metode uzrokovati ne samo promjenu boje u crnu, ljubičastu, smeđu, crvenu ili žutu već će i utjecati na teksturu kožice čineći je glatkom i sjajnom.


Olives differ according to size and appearance.


Masline se razlikuju po veličini i izgledu.


Their taste varies from bitter to sourish.


Okus im varira od gorkoga do kiselkastoga.


They are often salty because they are preserved in salt water.


Često su slane jer se konzerviraju u slanoj vodi.


Due to their nutritive composition, olives belong to the Mediterranean food products which have beneficial effect.


Zbog svog nutritivnog sastava, masline pripadaju namirnicama zaslužnim za blagotvorni učinak mediteranske prehrane.


Olives are special for their high level of monounsaturated fatty acids (75%) with a beneficial effect on health.


Masline se ističu visokim udjelom jednostruko nezasićenih masnih kiselina (čak 75 %), s povoljnim učinkom na zdravlje.


They are also a good source of vitamin E, a strong antioxidant necessary in everyday battle against the harmful free radicals.


One su i dobar izvor vitamina E, snažnog antioksidansa nužnog u svakodnevnoj borbi protiv štetnih slobodnih radikala.


Besides that, olives are also a good source of iron and copper as well as dietary fibers.


Osim toga, masline su i dobar izvor minerala željeza i bakra te prehrambenih vlakana.


Alongside vitamin E, active phitochemicals such as polyphenol and phlavonoid also contribute to the antioxidant features of olives.


Uz vitamin E, antioksidacijskim svojstvima maslina pridonose i aktivne fitokemikalije poput polifenola i flavonoida.


Olives’ sharp taste and strong color are the reason for the beneficial effect olives have on health.


Pikantan okus i jarka boja maslina zaslužni su za blagotvoran učinak maslina na zdravlje.


For example, the color of green olives primarily comes from chlorophile combined with various carotenoids, fitochemicals with a strong antioxidant effect.


Primjerice, boja zelenih maslina ponajprije potječe od klorofila u kombinaciji s različitim karotenoidima, fitokemikalijama sa snažim antiokisdativnim učinkom.


The taste of olives is a reflection of complex chemical processes which include phitochemicals, polyphenols, tannins and secoiroid derivatives.


Okus maslina odraz je prilično složenih kemijskih procesa u kojima sudjeluju fitokemikalije polifenoli, tanini i derivati sekoiridoida.


The olive fruit, oil and leaf have a rich history – they were used for nutritive, herbal and ceremonial purposes.


Plod, ulje i list masline imaju bogatu povijest primjene – u hranjive, ljekovite i ceremonijalne svrhe.


Olives and olive oil as well as olive products are an important part of the Mediterranean nutrition which has a beneficial effect on health.


Masline i maslinovo ulje te proizvodi od maslina važan su dio mediteranske prehrane, koja posjeduje blagotvoran učinak na zdravlje.


Antioxidants from olives protect the LDL cholesterol molecules from oxidation.


Antioksidansi iz maslina štite molekule LDL kolesterola od oksidacije.


The LDL cholesterol oxidation is one of the first steps in the occurrence of atherosclerosis.


Oksidacija LDL kolesterola jedan je od prvih koraka u nastanku ateroskleroze.


While it has been long known that vitamin E protects the molecules which contain fat, for example, the LDL cholesterol, recent research has shown that polyphenols, hydroxityrosol and oleuropein also have a beneficial effect.


Dok je sposobnost vitamina E da štiti molekule koje sadržavaju masti, primjerice LDL kolesterol, već dugo poznata, nedavna su istraživanja pokazala kako polifenoli, hidroksitirosol i oleuropein imaju isto blagotvorno djelovanje.


Scientific studies have proven that vitamin E, oleic acid and polyphenolic compounds, hydroxityrosol and oleuropein inhibit inflammatory processes.


Znanstvenim studijama dokazano je da vitamin E, oleinska kiselina i polifenolni spojevi hidroksitirosol i oleuropein inhibiraju upalne procese.


Since illnesses such as asthma, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis have inflammation in their etiology, an anti-inflammatory effect of these compounds in olives can help reduce the level of those illnesses.


Budući da bolesti poput astme, osteoartritisa i reumatoidnoga artririsa u svojoj etiologiji imaju upalu, protuupalno djelovanje ovih spojeva u maslinama može pomoći u smanjivanju stupnja tih bolesti.


This beneficial effect was confirmed by research as well; it shows that there is a lower risk of rheumatoid arthritis among the populations which eat the olives and the olive oil compared to those who don’t consume them.


Ovo ljekovito djelovanje potvrdila su i istraživanja; ona pokazuju kako populacije koje konzumiraju masline i maslinovo ulje imaju niži rizik od razvoja reumatoidnoga artritisa u usporedbi s onima koje ga ne konzumiraju.


The epidemiological studies carried out during the second half of the twentieth century have shown that the Mediterranean people lead a healthy way of life and that there is a significantly lower level of degenerative, especially cardiovascular, diseases and cancer among them.


Epidemiološke studije provedene tijekom druge polovice dvadesetog stoljeća dokazale su da stanovništvo Mediterana živi zdravim načinom života i bilježi značajno nižu stopu degenerativnih bolesti, poglavito kardiovaskularnih bolesti i karcinoma.


The objective of several studies was to explore the significance olives have when it comes to the beneficial effects of the Mediterranean nutrition.


Nekoliko studija imalo je u žarištu istražiti značaj konzumacije maslina na povoljne učinke mediteranske prehrane.


It was determined that olives contain significant amounts of hydroxityrosol, tyrosol, scvalen and terpenoid – molecules which have an anti-carcinogenic effect.


Utvrđeno je kako masline sadrže značajne količine hidroksitirosola i tirosola te skvalena i terpenoida – molekula koje posjeduju antikarcinogeno djelovanje.


According to all scientific studies, the use of large quantities of olive oil and olives in southern Europe significantly contributes to the beneficial effects of the Mediterranean nutrition.


Znanstvene studije suglasne su da obilna konzumacija maslinovog ulja i maslina u južnoj Europi predstavlja važan doprinos blagotvornim učincima mediteranske prehrane.


Olives are rich with indigestible dietary fibers (they contain 4 g of fibers in 100 g of eatable part of the fruit) and they, therefore, have a positive effect on digestion regularity.


Masline su bogate neprobavljivim prehrambenim vlaknima (sadrže 4 g vlakana u 100 g jestivog dijela ploda) i stoga imaju povoljan učinak na redovitost probave.


The dietary fibers should be consumed in adequate quantities if we want to do good to our digestive system.


Prehrambena vlakna treba konzumirati u adekvatnoj količini želimo li dobro svojem probavnom sustavu.


That way we, among other things, prevent the occurrence of colon cancer.


Na taj način, između ostaloga, djelujemo preventivno na nastanak karcinoma debelog crijeva.


Molecules which are found in olives – triterpenoids- are believed to be potentially effective substances in fighting colon cancer.


Molekule porijeklom iz maslina- triterpenoidi – razmatraju se kao potencijalno učinkovite tvari protiv karcinoma debelog crijeva.


Triterpenoids are non-nutritive dietary substances found in the olive fruit pit.


Triterpenoidi su nenutritivne prehrambene tvari koje se nalaze u kožici ploda masline.


They protect the fruit integrity in olives, also serve as safeguards from the insects and have an antimicrobial effect.


U maslinama služe za zaštitu integriteta voća, štite od insekata i imaju antimikrobno djelovanje.


It is indicative that the level of these substances is significantly lower in olive oil compared to the olive tree fruit.


Znakovito je da je razina ovih supstanci značajno niža u maslinovom ulju, u usporedbi s plodom masline.


An in vitro study has shown that the olive tree fruit extract which contains these molecules inhibits colon cancer cell growth.


In vitro studija dokazala je da ekstrakt iz ploda masline koji sadrži ove molekule inhibira rast stanica tumora debelog crijeva.


Although these findings must be confirmed through additional research, it seems that olives consumption makes a good strategy in defending ourselves from colon cancer.


Iako je ove postavke potrebno potvrditi dodatnim istraživanjima, čini se da je konzumacija maslina dobra strategija za obranu od karcinoma debelog crijeva.


Nerežišća is an old Brač village founded in 1000 to the Napoleon times. It was a residence of Brač prince and smithy of the Brač aristocracy.


Nerežišća su staro bračko naselje od 1000. godine do Napoleonovih vremena, a bilo je i prebivalište bračkoga kneza i kovačnica bračkoga plemstva.


Here can be found a small church of St. Peter from 14th century on which roof grows a 200 years old miniature pine.


Tu se nalazi crkvica sv. Petra iz 14. stoljeća, na čijem krovu raste minijaturni bor star 200 godina.


Within the church there is Nikola Lazanić's altar from the 16th century.


U crkvi je oltar Nikole Lazanića iz 16. stoljeća.


Agency for Science and Higher Education is dedicated to joining the international quality assurance system in higher education and science, and wishes to become its recognized and active member.


Agencija za znanost i visoko obrazovanje radi na uključivanju u međunarodni sustav osiguravanja kvalitete u visokom obrazovanju i znanosti i želi postati njegovim priznatim i aktivnim članom.


ASHE actively participates in the activities of the European and global networks for mobility and recognition of foreign higher education qualifications (ENIC - NARIC network).


Agencija aktivno sudjeluje u radu europskih i svjetskih mreža za poticanje mobilnosti i priznavanje inozemnih visokoškolskih kvalifikacija (ENIC i NARIC mreža).


Another part of ASHE dedicated to international activities is the National Tempus office, which is one of the offices supporting the EU TEMPUS programme aimed at developing higher education in the countries not members to EU, coordinated by the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency EACEA.


Pod okriljem Agencije djeluje i Nacionalni TEMPUS ured, koji je dio mreže ureda za potporu europskom programu TEMPUS namijenjenom razvoju visokog obrazovanja u zemljama koje nisu članice EU, a kojeg koordinira Izvršna agencija za obrazovanje, audiovizualnu politiku i kulturu EACEA (Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency).


On November 22nd 2006 ASHE joined INQAAHE (International Network for Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education), and on December 20th 2007 it established the associate status with ENQA (European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education) which presents a formal partnership between ASHE and ENQA. This status is also a part of the preparations for full ENQA membership, which ASHE plans to apply for by the end of 2010.


Dana 22. studenog 2006. godine Agencija je postala punopravni član INQAAHE (International Network for Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education), a 20. prosinca 2007. godine dobila je pridruženi status u ENQA-i (European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education – ENQA) koji predstavlja formalan (partnerski) odnos Agencije i ENQA-e. Navedeni status između ostalog predstavlja pripremu za punopravno članstvo u ENQA-i koje će Agencija zatražiti 2011. godine.


In the April of 2008 ASHE became a full member of CEEN (Network of Central and Eastern European Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education).


U travnju 2008. godine Agencija je postala punopravni član CEEN (Network of Central and Eastern European Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education).

The ASHE Tempus office also coordinates the Higher Education Reform Experts team (HERE), financed by the EU, the task of which is to promote the Bologna reform and support Croatian institutions in implementing the reform.


Pod okriljem Tempus ureda Agencije djeluje hrvatska skupina eksperata za podršku reformi visokog obrazovanja (HERE), koju financira Europska komisija a nadležna je za promociju Bolonjske reforme i podršku institucijama u njenoj provedbi.


If you could go back in time and walk around certain parts of the Kvarner area some one hundred years ago, for example the western outskirts of Rijeka, you would encounter a surprising scene.


Nižući korak po korak nekim dijelovima Kvarnera prije stotinjak godina, primjerice zapadnom periferijom Rijeke, opušteni bi se šetač našao pred neobičnim prizorom. Na području uz more tu su nebu hitali desetci tvorničkih dimnjaka.


The coastal strip of land was dotted with dozens of factory chimneys, poking up into the sky and doing what chimneys have always done: belching out smoke.


Izrastajući iz tla u zgusnutu rasporedu i nastojeći preteći obližnje konkurente u hitnji k nebu, dimnjaci su činili ono što im je odvajkada zadaća. Ispuštali su dim.


These chimneys indicated the energetic industrial life going on beneath them, for this was the western industrial zone of the town.


Otkud takav prizor? Bila je to zapadna gradska industrijska zona.


And they were tall, visible symbols of the fact that Kvarner was one of the most important industrial areas in Croatia.


A ti su dimnjaci bili visoki, svima vidljivi simboli činjenice da je kvarnersko područje jedno od industrijski najznačajnijih dijelova Hrvatske.


To be more accurate, Rijeka, the largest town on Kvarner, was Croatia’s industrial heart at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, the town where 50 percent of Croatia’s industry was then concentrated.


Točnije, da je najveći kvarnerski grad, Rijeka, krajem 19. i početkom 20. stoljeća industrijsko srce Hrvatske – u njemu je koncentrirano 50 posto ukupne tadašnje hrvatske industrije.


If you walked the same path again today, bearing in mind what you have just read, you would be surprised yet again, maybe even more than before.


Kad bi se s takvom informacijom u mislima davni šetač mogao zaputiti istim putom danas, suočio bi se s možda još neobičnijom slikom.


What used to be the outskirts of the town are now its centre.


Postala je gradsko središte. Ni dimnjaci nisu ostali isti.


And the skyline of chimneys has also changed - very few of them are still there; so few in fact that you could count them on the fingers of one hand.


Toliko su se prorijedili da ih se može izbrojiti na prste jedne ruke.


And the smoke?


Dim?


You can spot it only on rare occasions.


Tko ga ugleda, promatra ga kao poseban događaj.


What were the reasons for this change of scenery?


Objašnjenje promjene prizora?


In the 1990s, the years of transition, and at the beginning of the new millennium, most of Croatia's industrial plants disappeared forever. Even the mighty industrial plants on Kvarner could not avoid that destiny.


Tranzicijske okolnosti tijekom 1990- tih i početkom dvijetisućitih zauvijek su ugasile najveći dio hrvatskih industrijskih pogona pa tomu nisu izbjegli ni sve do jučer iznimno moćni industrijski objekti na Kvarneru.


And the factories in Rijeka were the first to go.


Riječki su se našli na udaru među prvima.


Still, the winds of this new economy could not completely erase these plants from the memory of Kvarner’s inhabitants.


Ipak, novi ekonomski vjetrovi nisu mogli izbrisati iz memorije stanovnika Kvarnera misli o tim pogonima, u mnogo slučajeva niti materijalne dokaze o njihovu postojanju.


Moreover, in many cases the material proofs of their existence can still be found across the region, reaching from archive documents (for example about the construction of the powerful Szent István warship) to direct contact with a witness of the scenery that you would have encountered in the 19th century.


Ti su dokazi ostali širom područja na dohvat ruke. Dokazi su u rasponu od arhivskih dokumenata (npr. o izgradnji moćnoga bojnog broda ″Szent István″), do izravna susreta sa živim sudionikom prizora što ga je ugledao naš šetač u 19. stoljeću, pogonom riječke Plinare na Mlaki.


One of them is the gasworks in the part of the town called Mlaka, one of the last preserved constructions from the time of the region’s industrial heyday.


Ta je pogon jedno od posljednjih preživjelih gospodarskih imena iz vremena najvećeg industrijskog buma kraja u kojem se nalazi.


Why does most of the oldest industrial and technical heritage on Kvarner date back to the 19th century?


Zašto je glavnina najstarije kvarnerske industrijske i tehničke baštine vezana uz 19. stoljeće?


The answer is simple: that was when the modern industrial world was really born.


Odgovor je lak. Riječ je o dobu u kojem se dogodilo rođenje suvremene svjetske industrije.


But we should not forget that such industrial development would not have been possible without some historical forerunners, including the oldest types of manufactures.


Dobro je, međutim, ne zaboraviti kako nema industrijskih koraka bez vrijednih prethodnika. Tako je imamo li na umu različite vrste tehnički relevantnih dostignuća, također znajući za prvotne, manufakturne načine proizvodnje.


There are many examples that show that these formed the basis for industrial development on Kvarner.


Primjera koji potvrđuju da su upravo to dvoje bili temelji za izrastanje novije, industrijske svijesti, na Kvarneru ima podosta.


One important name is Ivan Krstitelj Rabljanin.


Jedan od njih vezan je uz ime Ivana Krstitelja Rabljanina.


Born on the island of Rab in the 1470s or 80s, he became the most successful Croatian bronze caster.


Rođen na otoku Rabu 70- tih ili 80- tih godina 15. stoljeća, on je postao najuspješniji hrvatski ljevač bronce.


He cast his largest bell in Dubrovnik in 1506. It weighs more than two thousand kilograms and still rings out from the city tower.


Najveće je zvono izlio u Dubrovniku 1506., teško više od dvije tisuće kilograma, koje još odjekuje s gradskog tornja.


He probably also created the bronze figures that hammer out the hours on the bell.


Vjerojatno je izlio i »zelence«, brončane likove koji na zvonu otkucavaju sate.


He also cast cannons for defending the Dubrovnik Republic, such as the cannons in the Minčeta fortress.


Za obrambene potrebe Dubrovačke Republike izlijevao je i topove, poput onih na tvrđavi Minčeta.


Casting hot metal was not restricted to the coastal area, but was also done in the hinterland.


Hrvatska plemićka obitelj Zrinski otvorila je u Čabru 1651. rudarske talionice i kovačnice.


In 1651 the Croatian noble family of Zrinski opened smelting plants and forging works in Čabar that were used to cast iron for more than 130 years, up to 1785.


U njima se željezo izlijevalo više od 130 godina, sve do 1785.


How huge these works were we can assume from the fact that in the 1720s two hundred people worked there.


O kolikim je pogonima riječ može se naslutiti iz podatka da je 1720- tih u njima radilo dvije stotine radnika.


Other places where ore and iron were smelted were Brod na Kupi (from 1770), Crni Lug (from 1779), and Homer near Brod (from 1792).


Taljenje rude i starog željeza odvijalo se od 1770. i u željezari u Brodu na Kupi, od 1779. u Crnom Lugu, od 1792. u Homeru kod Broda.


Some of these ironworks continued operating until the beginning of the 19th century; with the ore for them being extracted in Delnice, Crni Lug, Mrzla Vodica, Lič and Lokve.


Dio tih pogona radio je do početka 19. stoljeća, a rudača za njih vađena je u Delnicama, Crnom Lugu, Mrzloj Vodici, Liču i Lokvama.


High-temperature furnaces had one of their most important advocates right here on Kvarner.


Peći s visokim temperaturama imale su na Kvarneru jednog od najvažnijih zagovornika.


Vince Wartha, one of the most famous Hungarian chemists, was born in Rijeka in 1844.


U Rijeci je 1844. rođen jedan od najpoznatijih mađarskih kemičara, Vince Wartha.


After his father, an army officer, was transferred to Szeged, Wartha left his native town to study chemistry in Budapest, Heidelberg and Zürich.


Nakon što mu je otac, vojni časnik, poslom premješten u Szeged, Wartha napušta rodni grad te se kemičarski obrazuje u Budimpešti, Heidelbergu i Zürichu.


He gained his reputation from an important discovery for the development of the ceramics industry, that is, by innovating the method of coating ceramics with paint.


Ugled je stekao otkrićem važnim za razvoj keramičarske industrije, inoviranjem premazivanja boje na keramici.


Kvarner is also the birthplace of a technical solution that significantly improved the traditional way of fishing worldwide.


Kvarner je, povrh toga, rodno mjesto tehničkog rješenja koje je unaprijedilo svjetsko ribarstvo.


For centuries, fishermen would sail off for a night’s fishing and lure fish by lighting fires.


Nakon što su ribari stoljećima isplovljavali u noćni ribolov svjetlosno se pomažući u privlačenju lovine loženjem vatre, sve se promijenilo 1898.


But that all changed in 1898 in Rijeka when Giovanni Delaitti devised an acetylene gas lamp whose intensity was equal to the light of 400 candles.


Tada je Giovanni Delaitti konstruirao u Rijeci svjetiljku na acetilenski plin. Delaittijeva svjetiljka davala je svjetlost jačine 400 svijeća.


Do we need to say that these and similar technical achievements made Kvarner an area that was predestined for strong industrial development?


Treba li reći da su takva i slična tehnička iskustva učinila Kvarner područjem predodređenim za snažno iskazivanje industrijskog poduzetništva?


Many of these industrial achievements had to do with the sea.


Dobar dio tih manifestacija obojen je u plavo.


This coastal area had always been steeped in maritime history, which resulted in many shipyards across the region.


Kraj na moru oduvijek je disao u dosluhu sa svojim modrim predvorjem, pa je tu postojao velik broj brodogradilišta.


Almost every coastal town had one, and they were kept very busy: in a period of some ten years, from 1850 to 1861, 301 sailing ships were launched in the shipyards in Rijeka alone, with a capacity of 110 thousand tons.


Na obali gotovo da nema mjesta bez takva proizvodnog pogona. Kakvim su oni radili ritmom ilustrira podatak da je u desetak godina, od 1850. do 1861., samo u riječkim brodogradilištima porinut 301 jedrenjak, nosivosti 110 tisuća tona.


These were ships of extraordinary quality.


Bili su to brodovi izvanredne kakvoće.


One of them became the flagship of the Argentinean navy under the name Restaurador Rosas. Another sailing ship, the Splendido, sailed around the globe between 1851 and 1859 under Captain Ivan Visin.


Jedan od njih, postao je pod imenom »Restaurador Rosas«, zapovjednički brod argentinske ratne mornarice, a jedrenjakom »Splendido« kapetan Ivan Visin oplovio je između 1851. i 1859. Zemljinu kuglu.


Also connected to the sea was the Rijeka sailcloth factory, the only one of its kind in Croatia.


Uz more je bio vezan i rad riječke tvornice platna za jedra, jedinstven pogon na tlu Hrvatske.


Rijeka was also the location of the three most important Croatian rope factories.


U istom su gradu djelovale tri najznačajnije hrvatske užarije.


Beside ropes, ships need metal, lost of metal.


Uz užad, brodovima su nadasve potrebne kovine.


And not only ships.


I ne samo brodovima.


With that in mind, of Croatia’s six foundries in the mid-19th century, five were opened in Rijeka.


Znajući za to, od šest ljevaonica na hrvatskom tlu sredinom 19. stoljeća njih pet otvoreno je u Rijeci.


The largest among these employed four hundred workers in 1854.


Najveća među njima zapošljavala je 1854. god. četiri stotine radnika.


The Rijeka chemicals factory was the only one of its kind in Croatia in 1852.


Za Hrvatsku jedinstven pogon bila je 1852. riječka tvornica kemijskih proizvoda.


At that time, the town had a soap factory, a candles factory and four leather works, as well as 98 flourmills, including Croatia’s first steam-powered mill, which was commissioned in 1853.


U istom su gradu sredinom stoljeća djelovale tvornica sapuna, tvornica svijeća i četiri kožare, te čak 98 mlinova za žito. Jedan od njih, počevši djelovati od 1853., bio je prvi parni mlin na hrvatskom tlu.


Many factories sprang up in the second half of the 19th century: a furniture factory, parquet flooring factory and steam sawmill, trunks and barrels factory.


Druga polovina stoljeća donijela je otvaranje tvornice pokućstva, tvornice parketa i parne pilane, tvornice sanduka i bačava.


Furthermore, there were fabrics, chemical fertilisers, marine coatings, bricks and cement products, cognac, ice, chocolate and sweets, and two oil factories.


Također tvornice tanina, umjetnih gnojiva, brodskih boja, opeka i cementnih proizvoda, konjaka, leda, čokolade i bombona, dvije tvornice ulja.


Of Rijeka’s twenty thousand inhabitants, five thousand worked in industry.


U gradu koji je imao dvadesetak tisuća stanovnika, pet tisuća njih radilo je upravo u industriji.


At the end of the 19th century, Rijeka and its surroundings became one of Europe’s most strongly concentrated industrial zones.


Krajem stoljeća riječko je područje postalo jednom od najsnažnije koncentriranih industrijskih zona u Europi.


How strongly the town was influenced by its industrial plants we know from the fact that even today its eastern part is called after one of these works.


O tomu koliko je grad bio obilježen industrijskim pogonima govori saznanje kako njegov istočni dio i dan-danas nosi naziv prema jednom od tih pogona.


The lead melting plant that operated here in the period between 1911 and 1929 gave its name to the part of the town called Plumbum.


Talionica olova koja je tu radila od 1911. do 1929. dala je ime riječkom kvartu Plumbum.


With Rijeka being such a strong centre of industry, industrial plants were started elsewhere on Kvarner.


Uz tako snažno industrijsko središte, industrijski su objekti nicali i drugdje na Kvarneru.


For example, after Rijeka got its sardine-tinning factory by the 1860s, fish canneries were opened in the town of Cres on the island of the same name, and in Ika near Opatija.


Npr., ako je Rijeka 1860-ih dobila tvornicu konzerviranih sardina, s vremenom će tvornicu za preradu ribe dobiti i grad Cresu na istoimenom otoku. Za istu će vrstu posla biti otvoren pogon u Iki.


Some of Kvarner’s industrial plants ceased to operate in the 19th century, but some of them continued on well into the 20th century.


Dio kvarnerskih industrijskih pogona prestao je djelovati već u 19. stoljeću, dio njih nastavio je radom i duboko u 20. stoljeće.


The huge industrial plants attracted a large number of workers from the continental parts of the former Yugoslavia in the second half of the 20th century, which increased the number of Rijeka’s inhabitants.


Golemi će industrijski objekti u drugoj polovini toga stoljeća privući na Kvarner velik broj radnika iz unutrašnjosti tadašnje države. Time i velik broj novih stanovnika.


Today this is no longer the case.


Danas je trend obrnut.


Active industrial plants, especially the former large factories, declined in number significantly, but nevertheless – or maybe exactly because of that – the value of Kvarner’s industrial heritage is increasingly being recognised.


Živi industrijski pogoni, pogotovo nekadašnje velike tvornice, ozbiljno su se prorijedili, a usporedno s tim – ako ne i upravo zbog toga – sve se više prepoznaje vrijednost industrijske baštine Kvarnera.


Recently many international meetings of professionals and scientists have taken place in Kvarner, chosen as their venue for its technical heritage.


Posljednjih je godina on stalnim mjestom održavanja međunarodnih stručnih i znanstvenih skupova potaknutih njegovim tehničkim nasljeđem.


There are ever more people walking around Kvarner whose points of interest are – the tall, old factory chimneys.


Kvarnerom slažu korak na korak neki novi šetači, kojima su točke interesa – visoki, stari tvornički dimnjaci.


The Sugar Refinery, the so-called Zuccheriera, was the first and oldest industrial plant in Rijeka.


Rafinerija šećera, tzv. Zuccheriera (Šećerana), prvi je i najstariji industrijski pogon u Rijeci.


It was established in 1750 as a plant for processing sugar cane and raw sugar from overseas.


Osnovana je 1750., nakon čega je izgrađen pogon za preradu šećerne trske i sirovog šećera, dopremanih iz prekooceanskih zemalja.


Since the refinery was located right by the sea, raw material would be unloaded from the ships directly to the factory’s entrance.


Budući da se tvornica nalazila na obali uza samo more, sirovina se s jedrenjaka istovarivala izravno pred tvornički ulaz.


The factory area of 17 thousand square metres was criss-crossed by water channels that were used for the production.


Područje tvornice, ukupne površine od 17 tisuća četvornih metara, bilo je bogato ispresijecano vodotocima, koji su korišteni u proizvodnji.


The refinery employed several hundred workers in Rijeka and the hinterland, and had representative offices throughout Europe (Vienna, Graz, Lisbon, Levant) and worldwide (Philadelphia, Santiago de Chile, Crimea).


Zapošljavala je više stotina radnika u Rijeci i zaleđu te imala predstavništva diljem Europe (Beč, Graz, Lisabon, Levant) i svijeta (Philadelphia, Santiago de Chille, Krim).


In the heyday of the company in 1786, a new administrative building was added, one of the largest factory buildings on the Adriatic.


Godine 1786., u doba silna uzleta kompanije, dobila je novu administrativnu palaču, jednu od najvećih tvorničkih zgrada na Jadranu.


The refinery was closed in 1828, but the magnificent late baroque building still serves as a reminder of its past.


Šećerana je radila do 1828. Na nju danas podsjeća sačuvana velebna kasnobarokna upravna palača.


The Tobacco Factory appeared in Rijeka in 1851 when it took over the buildings of the former Sugar Refinery, which in the meantime had served as barracks due to their size.


Tvornica duhana (popularno nazvana Tabakera) pojavila se u Rijeci 1851., uselivši se u prostore nekadašnje Rafinerije šećera, koji su zbog veličine u međuvremenu služili kao vojarne.


The Tobacco Factory added new production buildings to the existing factory complex, thus becoming the largest tobacco processing plant in the Monarchy.


Preuzeti industrijski kompleks Tvornica je proširila novim proizvodnim zgradama postajući najveći pogon za preradu duhana u Monarhiji.


One of the new buildings was the Virginia cigars production line from 1867, popularly known as the T-Building because of its ground plan.


Među novim je zgradama pogon za proizvodnju cigara Virginia iz 1867. zbog tlocrtnog oblika nazvan T-objekt.


Close to it were two old production buildings that were connected in the middle, resulting in a H-shaped ground plan.


Nedaleko od njega su dva stara pogonska objekta, spojena po sredini, što tlocrtom podsjećaju na slovo H. Prvih godina u Tvornici radi oko tisuću radnika, a do sredine 1860-ih taj će se broj udvostručiti.


During the first years of production, the Factory employed some one thousand workers, and by the mid-1860s this number had doubled.


Posebnost njezinu radu dao je vrlo visok udjel ženske radne snage, štoviše radnice u broju zaposlenih prevladavaju.


It is interesting to mention that more than half the employees were women.


Tvornica djeluje do kraja Drugoga svjetskoga rata.


The factory was closed by the end of World War II. In the period between 1945 and 1998, the same buildings housed the Rikard Benčić Engine Factory.


Na istom će mjestu od 1945. do 1998. djelovati Tvornica motora Rikard Benčić.


Beside the administrative palace inherited from the Sugar Refinery, the preserved T-Building and H-Building today still stand as reminders of the Tobacco factory.


Uz administrativnu palaču naslijeđenu od Rafinerije šećera, na Tvornicu duhana danas podsjećaju sačuvane zgrade T-objekta i H-objekta.


The Rijeka Gasworks was commissioned in a most spectacular way: it enabled the illumination of the town on the summer night of 1st August 1852 with 226 gas lamps with fan-shaped flames.


Riječka plinara svoje je djelovanje započela spektakularno, omogućujući da grad u ljetnoj noći, 1. kolovoza 1852., bude osvijetljen s 226 plinskih svjetiljki lepezasta plamena.


This date was important not only for Rijeka, as this was the first plant of its kind in Croatia and the former Yugoslavia.


Taj datum nije važan samo za Rijeku: njezina se plinara pojavljuje kao prvi pogon te vrste u Hrvatskoj i na području bivše Jugoslavije.


It also made possible the introduction of gas illuminations to the Rijeka Theatre in 1856.


Godine 1856. omogućila je uvođenje plinske rasvjete u Gradsko kazalište.


The gasworks were first located in the city, and then, from 1874, at a new location outside the town, in the western industrial zone where its production capacity was significantly increased from 400-500 thousand cubic metres gas in the 1850s to two million cubic metres gas at the eve of World War I. In 1878, Rijeka had 318 gas lamps, and by the end of the 19th century, 511.


Plinara se isprva nalazila u samom gradu, a od 1874. nastavila je rad na novoj lokaciji, izvan grada, u njegovoj zapadnoj industrijskoj zoni. Tu povećava proizvodnju: sa 400-500 tisuća prostornih metara plina, koliko je ona iznosila 1850- ih, na dva milijuna prostornih metara plina uoči Prvoga svjetskoga rata. Rijeka 1878. ima 318, a krajem stoljeća 511 plinskih svjetiljki.


The last of these was turned off in 1939.


Zadnja je svjetiljka u gradu ugašena 1939.


Gas production has continued until today, with a gradual change to natural gas since 1995.


Proizvodnja gradskog plina nastavljena je do današnjih dana, od 1995. uz postupnu zamjenu miješanim plinom.


Today this is the responsibility of the Energo municipal services company.


Taj se posao odvija u sklopu Komunalnog poduzeća Energo.


A “two-storey” telescopic gasometer (gas storage tank) from 1910 was used in the gasworks for a very long time - up until 1992.


U Plinari se dugo koristilo teleskopski gazometar (plinospremu) »na dva kata« iz 1910. Taj je veteran umirovljen 1992.


The Mill in Žakalj was the largest industrial flour mill in Rijeka.


Mlin u Žaklju najveći je riječki industrijski mlin za žitarice.


It was constructed in 1841 in the canyon of the River Rječina as one of the 27 mills built in the area, most of them in the mid-19th century.


Podignut je 1841. u kanjonu Rječine, kao jedan od brojnih lokalnih mlinova izraslih sredinom 19. stoljeća, kojih je uz Rječinu bilo 27.


It was a part of the company Stabilimento commerciale di farine.


Radio je u okviru tvrtke Stabilimento commerciale di farine.


After a fire in 1862 it was renovated and enlarged to six floors 90 metres in length and 25 metres in height.


Nakon požara 1862., obnovljen je i povećan. Objekt je narastao na šest etaža, dužine 90 i visine 25 metara.


In its heyday it employed 300 workers who annually produced as many as 250 thousand truckloads of flour that was transported in barrels to Istria, Dalmatia, Trieste, England, Germany, France, Egypt and Brazil.


U najboljim danima mlin je zapošljavao 300 radnika, koji su godišnje proizvodili 250 tisuća vagona brašna. Ono se u bačvama otpremalo u Istru, Dalmaciju i Trst, u Englesku, Njemačku, Francusku, Egipat i Brazil.


The Žakalj Mill was a part of the Stabilimento company until 1881, but in the following year it became part of the new Mill joint-stock company.


Žakalj u sastavu Stabilimenta posluje do 1881., a od sljedeće godine u okviru novoosnovanog Dioničkoga društva za mlin.


The mill was closed in 1894, and in 1918 it was sold to the Hungarian Beer Company from Budapest, which wanted to build a beer factory in Žakalj.


Mlin radi do 1894. Godine 1918. prodan je Ugarskom pivarskom društvu iz Budimpešte, koje u Žaklju planira izgraditi tvornicu piva.


But after the borders were moved following the war, the access road and the mill were suddenly divided between two countries, so the plans to produce beer could not be realised.


No, poratnim pomicanjem granica prilazna cesta i mlin našli su se rascijepljeni u dvije države pa zamisao o proizvodnji piva nije ostvarena.


Žakalj began to dilapidate.


Žakalj počinje propadati.


The high ivy-covered walls of the production building along the River Rječina are a reminder of its past.


Na njega danas podsjećaju ostatci visokih zidova pogonske zgrade uz Rječinu, obrasli bršljanom.


Today the mill in Žakalj is a romantic ruin.


Mlin u Žaklju romantična je ruševina.


The sawmill in Crikvenička Draga, in the hinterland of Crikvenica, was first mentioned as early as 1428 – indeed it is one of the oldest sawmills anywhere in the world with documented proof of its existence.


Pilana u Crikveničkoj dragi, prvi put spomenuta 1428., jedna je od najstarijih pilana na svijetu za čije djelovanje postoji pisano svjedočanstvo djelovanja.


In charge of that water sawmill on the small river of Dubračina were Paulist monks who operated it, together with their mills, by permission of Duke Nikola Frankopan.


Riječ je o pilani vodenici što su je držali pavlinski redovnici na rječici Dubračini uza svoje mlinove, s dopuštenjem kneza Nikole Frankopana.


The timber came from his forests and was sent to Venice.


Drvo za piljenje stizalo je iz njegovih šuma i otpremano za Veneciju.


Due to technological development, such sawmills would with time be pushed into the background.


Tehnološki razvoj s vremenom će odgurnuti takve pilane u drugi plan.


The first steam sawmill in Croatia was opened in 1850 in Bijela Vodica near Crni Lug in Gorski kotar by the timber merchant from Grobnik, Nikola Durbešić.


Prva parna pilana u Hrvatskoj otvorena je 1850. u Bijeloj Vodici, mjestu kraj Crnoga Luga u Gorskome kotaru. Nju je podigao grobnički trgovac drvom Nikola Durbešić.


The sawmill had six log frames, each with one or two saws powered by a 25-horsepower steam engine from 1830.


Imala je šest jarmova, svaki s po jednom ili dvije pile, koje je pokretao parni stroj od 25 konjskih snaga, proizveden 1830.


Here mainly beech wood was processed and made into pieces of board for lemon and orange packaging needed by merchants in Italy.


Tu je uglavnom rezano bukovo drvo, od kojeg su pravljene daščice za ambalažu potrebnu trgovcima limuna i naranči u Italiji.


The sawmill in Bijela Vodica did not remain the only one of its kind for long.


Pogon iz Bijele Vodice nije ostao dugo usamljen.


Already by the next year Josip Velasti had built a steam sawmill in nearby Prezid, and after that another steam sawmill was constructed in Ravna Gora.


Već sljedeće godine Josip Velasti izgradio je parnu pilanu u nedalekom Prezidu, a potom se pojavila i parna pilana u Ravnoj Gori.


The sawmill in Bijela Vodica probably disappeared in a fire in 1885.


Pilana iz Bijele Vodice vjerojatno je nestala u požaru 1885.


The tradition of shipbuilding on Kvarner has a long tradition and goes back to the times of the Liburnians, an Illyrian tribe.


Gradnja drvenih brodova ima na Kvarneru dojmljivu tradiciju još iz vremena ilirskog plemena Liburni.


Their ships, the “Liburnian galleys”, were the elite sailing vessels of the Roman imperial fleet because of their quality.


Njihovi brodovi »liburne« uvršteni su zbog kvalitete u elitna plovila ratne mornarice Rimskoga Carstva.


In more recent times, shipbuilding flourished again on the island of Lošinj in 1824.


U novije doba posebno je velik uspon gradnje drvenih brodova započeo na otoku Lošinju 1824.


The town of Mali Lošinj had six shipyards in the 19th century.


Mjesto Mali Lošinj imalo je u 19. stoljeću šest brodogradilišta.


Because of that, Mali Lošinj became a European centre of shipbuilding and shipping – for some time it held second place in the Austro-Hungarian Empire for the number of long-distance sailing ships that were made there.


Zahvaljujući njima, Mali Lošinj postao je europska brodograđevna i brodarska sila – brojem izgrađenih jedrenjaka duge plovidbe uzdigao se jedno vrijeme u austro-ugarskoj brodogradnji na drugo mjesto.


By the second half of the 19th century it had almost 150 sailing ships, more than the whole of neighbouring Istria.


Lošinjsko brodarstvo imalo je u drugoj polovini 19. stoljeća gotovo 150 jedrenjaka, što je više od cijele susjedne Istre.


Sailing reached its peak in the period between 1855 and 1870, when 1,400 captains and sailors from Lošinj were working away at sea.


Plovidba na jedra dostigla je vrhunac između 1855. i 1870., kada na lošinjskim jedrenjacima plovi 1.400 kapetana i mornara.


Some of the most renowned shipbuilders and shippers from Lošinj were the families of Karatanich, Tarabochia, Martinolich (who later founded the shipyards in Monfalcone), and Cosulich (present owners of a shipping company in Trieste).


Među najpoznatijim su lošinjskim brodograditeljima i brodarima obitelji Karatanich, Tarabochia, Martinolich (budući osnivači brodogradilišta u Monfalconeu), Cosulich (današnji vlasnici brodarske tvrtke u Trstu).


In Punat on the island of Krk, a shipyard that produces wooden ships from 1922 is still operating and is today the largest shipyard of its kind on the Croatian Adriatic.


Na otoku Krku, u mjestu Punat, i danas djeluje brodogradilište drvenih brodova iz 1922., najveće brodogradilište te vrste na hrvatskom Jadranu.


The Ana Marija (Ann Mary) steamship was the first vessel of the Austrian navy to be driven by steam engine.


Parobrod »Ana Marija« prvo je plovilo austrijske mornarice koje se kretalo pogonskom energijom parnog stroja.


This wooden ship was launched in 1835 from the shipyard in Kraljevica.


To je drveni brod »na kotače«, porinut u more 1835., u brodogradilištu u Kraljevici.


This event marked the flourishing of shipbuilding in Kraljevica in that period, and the credit for that goes primarily to the Pritchard family that owned the shipyard from 1835.


Bio je on jednim od prvih znakova uzleta kraljevičke brodogradnje toga doba, za što je ponajvećim dijelom zaslužna obitelj Pritchard, vlasnik brodogradilišta od spomenute, 1835. godine.


The Ana Marija was also the first steam-powered ship to enter the port of Rijeka, which happened in 1836.


»Ana Marija« je ujedno prvi parobrod koji je uplovio u riječku luku, što se dogodilo 1836.


The Kvarner shipyards played an important role in building ships for the Austrian fleet, which had particular importance at some key moments.


Sudjelovanje kvarnerskih proizvodnih kapaciteta u izgradnji austrijske ratne flote pokazat će se posebno značajnim u nekim presudnim trenutcima.


The Rijeka Technical Factory (Stabilimento tecnico fiumano) constructed steam engines that were used to power Austria’s warships in the battle of Vis in 1866.


Riječka tehnička tvornica (Stabilimento tecnico fiumano) izgradila je parne strojeve koji su pokretali austrijske ratne brodove u Viškome boju 1866.


Some of the credit for defeating the Italian fleet goes to the excellent quality of the engines from Rijeka.


Dio zasluga za poraz moćnije talijanske flote pripisuje se upravo odlikama riječkih pogonskih strojeva.


The Hrvat (Croat) steamship, the first Croatian steamship, was built in the Rijeka Technical Factory (Stabilimento tecnico fiumano) to plans by the Rijeka engineer Otto Schlick and launched on 13th July 1872 as the first ship of its kind built on the Croatian coast for a domestic customer.


Parobrod »Hrvat«, prvi hrvatski parobrod, izgrađen je u Riječkoj tehničkoj tvornici (Stabilimento tecnico fiumano). Brod je napravljen prema nacrtu riječkoga inženjera Otta Schlicka i porinut u more 13. srpnja 1872., kao prvi brod te vrste izgrađen na hrvatskoj obali za domaćeg naručitelja.


It was ordered by the Shipping society from Senj that intended to establish a line of passenger and cargo ships between Rijeka and Senj.


Naručilo ga je Brodarsko društvo iz Senja, koje je zbog prijevoza putnika i robe namjeravalo povezati Rijeku i Senj.


The ship was made of iron, was 34.65 m long and 4.80 m wide, and powered by a 130-horsepower steam engine. It had a capacity of 82 gross register tons and a crew of nine.


Brod je bio željezni, »na svrdlo«, dug 34,65 m i širok 4,80 m, imao je parni stroj od 130 konjskih snaga te 82 BRT. Na njemu je plovilo devet članova posade.


Regular passage between the two harbours was established on the 7th September of the same year.


Redovnu liniju između dviju luka uspostavio je 7. rujna iste godine.


Initially it sailed five times a week in summer and three times a week in winter, with stops in Novi Vinodolski, Selce, Crikvenica, Voz, Kraljevica and Bakar.


Isprva je vozio pet puta tjedno ljeti i tri puta tjedno zimi, zaustavljajući se pritom u Novom Vinodolskom, Selcu, Crikvenici, Vozu, Kraljevici i Bakru.


The ship sailed under the flag of the Ungaro-Croata shipping company.


Brod je potom plovio u sastavu brodarske kuće Ungaro-Croata, koja ga je 1903. prodala u Mali Lošinj.


It was sold in 1903 in Mali Lošinj where it was renowned, and resold to Izola under the name of Besenghi.


Tu je obnovljen i preprodan u Izolu, pod imenom Besenghi.


It disappeared from the list of ships in 1916.


S popisa brodova nestaje 1916.


The Torpedo Factory in Rijeka came into being thanks to Giovanni Luppis from Rijeka who came up with the idea for a naval defence weapon that would “guard the coast”.


Tvornica torpeda u Rijeci izrasla je tragom zamisli Riječanina Giovannija Luppisa o obrambenom oružju protiv neprijateljskih brodova, nazvanom »spasitelj obale«.


Luppis had that idea in the early 1860s, but had not enough technical knowledge and means to put it into practice.


Luppis se idejom bavio početkom 1860-ih, bez dovoljno tehničkih znanja i sredstava za realizaciju. Za nju uspijeva zainteresirati inž.


Robert Whitehead, manager of the firm Stabilimento tecnico fiumano, got interested in Luppis’s idea and made and tested a prototype on 20th December 1866.


Roberta Whiteheada, upravitelja tvrtke Stabilimento tecnico fiumano. Whitehead razvija prototip i iskušava ga 20. prosinca 1866.


For the test launchings, he installed his invention, the launching tube, on the gunboat Gemse in 1868.


Za pokusna lansiranja 1868. na topovnjaču ″Gemse″ ugrađuje svoj izum, lansirnu cijev.


This was done in the Rijeka shipyard of Schiavon Brothers, making Gemse the first torpedo ship in the world.


To je učinjeno u riječkom brodogradilištu braće Schiavon, čime ″Gemse″ postaje prvi torpedni brod na svijetu.


In 1875, Stabilimento became the Torpedo Factory R. Whitehead & Co., the first torpedo factory in the world, with an annual production of 800 torpedoes for customers from Great Britain, France, Italy, Germany, Sweden, Japan, Argentina, Russia etc.


Stabilimento se 1875. transformira u Tvornicu torpeda R. Whitehead & Co. To je prva svjetska tvornica torpeda, s godišnjom proizvodnjom od 800 primjeraka.


The factory opened production works abroad, and later licensed production worldwide.


Riječka torpeda naručuju Velika Britanija, Francuska, Italija, Njemačka, Švedska, Japan, Argentina, Rusija… Tvornica će osnovati pogone u inozemstvu, s vremenom dopustiti i licencnu proizvodnju širom svijeta.


Production of this weapon continued in Rijeka until 1966.


Proizvodnja torpeda u Rijeci potrajat će do 1966.


At the site of the former Torpedo factory there is still a launching ramp from the 1930s.


Uz hale bivše Tvornice još se nalazi građevina lansirne rampe iz 1930-ih.


The Rice-Husking Plant and Starch Factory in Rijeka was at the moment of its commissioning the largest rice-husking plant in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and one of the largest works of its kind worldwide.


Ljuštionica riže i tvornica škrobnog štirka u Rijeci u trenutku otvorenja najveća je ljuštionica riže u Austro-Ugarskoj Monarhiji i jedan od najvećih pogona te vrste u svijetu.


It was commissioned in 1882 and annually processed up to 50 thousand tons of rice that was delivered from Rangoon.


Započela je radom 1882. i za njezine se potrebe dopremalo iz Rangoona do 50 tisuća tona riže godišnje.


The factory initially employed 400 workers – this number would increase with the increased processing capacity of the factory.


U tvornici je bilo zaposleno 400 radnika i radnica. Taj će broj s godinama rasti, kao i preradbeni kapacitet pogona.


For example, in 1910 the factory processed 70 thousand tons of rice.


Primjerice, tvornica će 1910. preraditi 70 tisuća tona riže.


The rice-husking plant was closed after World War I, and in 1936 its land and buildings were bought by the neighbouring Oil Refinery.


Ljuštionica je prestala raditi poslije Prvoga svjetskoga rata, a 1936. njezin će teren i objekte kupiti susjedna Rafinerija nafte.


The largest building of the Rice-husking plant, the 117 metres-long and 28 metres-wide five-storey production building from 1882, was adapted by the new owner for a new purpose.


Najveći objekt Ljuštionice, 117 metara dugu i 28 metara široku peterokatnu pogonsku zgradu, izgrađenu 1882., novi vlasnik prilagođava novoj namjeni.


In order to become the Refinery's administrative palace, this edifice was entirely re-designed by the architect Enea Perugini according to the customs of Italian state art of the time, in the novecento style.


Da bi postala Rafinerijina upravna palača, arhitekt Enea Perugini u cijelosti je preoblikuje, i to prema uzusima tadašnje talijanske državne umjetnosti, stila novecento.


The Palace has been used for the same purpose ever since, attracting great attention due to its monumental size.


Palača se i danas koristi za istu namjenu, plijeneći pozornost svojom monumentalnošću.


The Rijeka Oil Refinery was founded in 1882 and put into operation in 1883 as the largest oil-processing plant in Europe.


Rafinerija nafte Rijeka osnovana je 1882. i započela radom 1883., kao najveći pogon za preradu nafte na europskom kontinentu.


It was built to the plans of the Rijeka architect Mato Glavan.


Podignuta je prema nacrtu riječkoga arhitekta Mate Glavana.


In contrast to other refineries of that time, which were organised like manufacturing plants, the Rijeka Refinery had an initial annual capacity of 60 thousand tons, a workforce of 300 and a professional chemist as director. Therefore it was the first industrial oil-processing plant in Europe.


Za razliku od ostalih rafinerija toga doba, koje rade manufakturno, riječka Rafinerija započinje rad s godišnjim preradbenim kapacitetom od 60 tisuća tona, s 300 zaposlenih i profesionalnim kemičarom kao ravnateljem, postajući time prvi europski pogon za preradu nafte na industrijski način.


Rijeka is the birthplace of the oil industries of two EU member states: Hungary (whose authority Rijeka came under when the Refinery was founded) and Italy (after World War I, the Refinery was the “core of the Italian oil programme” and the first industrial plant of the state firm Agip in 1926).


Rijeka je rodno mjesto naftnih industrija dviju današnjih članica EU: Mađarske (u čijem se državnom okrilju grad nalazio u trenutku osnivanja Rafinerije) i Italije (Rafinerija je nakon završetka Prvoga svjetskoga rata »jezgra naftnog programa« te države, a 1926. i prvi industrijski objekt državne tvrtke Agip).


The Refinery’s plant in the part of town called Mlaka is today one of the oldest active refineries worldwide, with a preserved chimney from 1883 and some oil product tanks from 1883 and 1884.


Rafinerijski pogon na Mlaki danas je jedan od nekoliko najstarijih djelatnih rafinerija u svijetu, s očuvanim pogonskim dimnjakom iz 1883. te nekoliko spremnika za naftne proizvode iz 1883. i 1884.


Peter Salcher (1848 – 1928), professor at the Rijeka Naval Academy, was a close associate of Ernst Mach and succeeded in what the famous physicist could not achieve - to make a picture of the invisible.


Peter Salcher (1848. – 1928.), profesor riječke Mornaričke akademije, kao blizak suradnik Ernsta Macha, uspio je ono što poznatom fizičaru nije pošlo za rukom – snimiti nevidljivo.


Mach wanted to provide experimental evidence of his hypothesis about the existence of a “shock wave” around objects moving at speeds greater than the speed of sound. Therefore, he asked Salcher to try gaining such evidence in his laboratory in Rijeka.


Mach nije mogao eksperimentalno potvrditi svoju hipotezu o »udarnom valu«, pojavi uz objekt koji se kreće brže od zvuka, pa je zamolio Salchera da to pokuša u svom riječkom laboratoriju.


No sooner said than done.


Rečeno, učinjeno.


In 1886, Salcher and his associate Sandoro Riegler took a series of ultra-fast photographs of the acoustic phenomena that arise around a flying gun bullet, thus proving the existence of the “shock wave”, today also known as the “sound barrier”.


Salcher je sa suradnikom Sandorom Rieglerom 1886. snimio cijeli niz ultrabrzih fotografija akustičnih pojava tijekom leta ispaljenog puščanog zrna i dokazao postojanje »udarnog vala«, danas nazvanog i »zvučni zid«.


His work was a scientific sensation.


Rad je bio svjetska znanstvena senzacija.


Could the unit for the speed of sound, instead of Mach, have been Salcher?


Je li oznaka za brzinu zvuka, umjesto mach, mogla postati salcher?


We’ll leave that question unanswered and just remember that Salcher during his experiment actually took the first ever photographs of – a flying bullet.


Prepustimo li odgovor na to pitanje drugima, dobro je znati da je Salcher tijekom pokusa zapravo prvi put u povijesti uspio fotografirati – metak u letu.


The Lighthouse at the beginning of Baračeva Street in Rijeka originally stood in the main harbour basin, at the end of the Maria Theresa breakwater, where it was erected to the plans by Lajos Luigi Burgsatller in 1884, at the heyday of the building and traffic expansion of the port of Rijeka.


Svjetionik na početku Baračeve ulice u Rijeci isprva je stajao u glavnom lučkom bazenu, na kraju lukobrana Marije Terezije. Tu je podignut prema projektu Lajosa Luigija Burgsatllera 1884., u doba najvećega graditeljskog proširenja i prometne ekspanzije riječke luke.


This expansion reached its peak in 1914 when the port of Rijeka had the eighth largest turnover in Europe.


Vrhunac te ekspanzije dogodit će se 1914., kada luka postaje prometom osma u Europi.


The iron lighthouse is 31 metres high and has a reflector 1.2 m in diameter.


Svjetionik je od željeza, visok 31 m, s promjerom reflektora od 1,2 m.


Its light used to flash white and red and could be seen from a distance of 10-15 nautical miles.


Naizmjenično je titrao bijelom i crvenom svjetlošću, tako snažnom da se vidjela na udaljenosti od 10 do 15 pomorskih milja.


Shortly after, the part of the breakwater with the lighthouse began sinking, so the lighthouse had to be dismantled and removed.


Nedugo nakon postavljanja taj je dio lukobrana započeo tonuti pa je svjetionik rastavljen i uklonjen.


It was erected again in 1893, at its present location.


Iznova je podignut 1893., na sadašnjem mjestu.


In 1933 it was dismantled and erected again, this time being higher and reinforced with concrete buttresses to the plans by Andrea Bayer.


Prema projektu Andree Bayera, 1933. je još jednom rastavljen, sastavljen, povišen i ojačan armiranobetonskim rebrima.


Today it is interesting for two reasons: as a direct reminder of the history of Rijeka harbour, and as a symbol of the “entrance” to the former western industrial zone of the town.


Danas je dvostruko zanimljiv: kao izravan svjedok iz samih početaka razvoja riječke luke te kao objekt koji simbolizira »ulaz« u bivšu zapadnu industrijsku zonu grada.


An electric carbon filament bulb, the oldest known in Croatia, has been located in Rijeka’s Teatro Fenice cinema.


Električna žarulja s ugljenom niti, najstarija poznata u Hrvatskoj, nalazi se već stotinjak godina u zgradi riječkoga kina Teatro Fenice.


Who was the first to turn it on, when and why, we do not know.


Tko je, gdje i kada prvi uključio žarulju, nepoznato je.


Since the Teatro Fenice was built in 1914, it is possible that the bulb also dates from that time.


Budući da je pronađena u Teatru Fenice, koje datira iz 1914., moguće je da potječe iz tog doba.


However, since it is similar in shape to the bulbs used on the 4th October 1885 to illuminate the newly opened Municipal Theatre in Rijeka (800 such bulbs were used on that occasion), it is also possible that it dates back to as early as 1885.


No, s obzirom na to da je oblikom slična žaruljama što su 4. listopada 1885. prvi put osvijetlile novootvoreno Općinsko kazalište u Rijeci (ono je osvijetljeno s 800 takvih žarulja), moguće je da potječe iz 1885.


If that can be proven, this bulb from Rijeka will become the world’s oldest still-functioning electric light bulb.


Pokaže li se ta godina točnom, riječka žarulja postat će svjetski rekorder među žaruljama koje još mogu obavljati svoju rasvjetnu zadaću.


It is a so-called Edison’s light bulb, a model created by Thomas Alva Edison in the second half of the 19th century.


Riječ je o tzv. Edisonovoj žarulji, modelu što ga je stvorio Thomas Alva Edison u drugoj polovini 19. stoljeća.


It is powered by a voltage of 110 V, and its resistance when cold is 1350 Ohm.


Svijetli uz pomoć napona od 110 V, a njezin je otpor u hladnom stanju 1350 ohma.


It is interesting that the first electrical lighting in Rijeka appeared on the 30th of August 1881 when a Hungarian engineer Károly Zipernowsky (who later invented the transformer as we know it today) introduced a lighting system at the Zichy gate.


Zanimljivo je da se prva električna rasvjeta u Rijeci pojavila 30. kolovoza 1881., kada je mađarski inženjer Károly Zipernowsky (kasnije pronalazač transformatora u današnjem obliku) uspostavio sustav rasvjete na molu Zichy.


The first electric power plant was constructed in Rijeka in 1890 for the needs of the harbour and the railway.


Za potrebe luke i željeznice u Rijeci je 1890. izgrađena i prva električna centrala u Hrvatskoj.


The tanker Etelka entered the so-called “Petroleum harbour” of Rijeka on the 12th of December 1892, bringing 3,500 tons of oil from the harbour of Batumi on the Black Sea.


Tanker »Etelka« uplovio je u riječku Petrolejsku luku 12. prosinca 1892., donoseći s prve plovidbe 3.500 tona nafte iz crnomorske luke Batumi.


It was built for the Rijeka Oil Refinery and is remembered as the first and only tanker of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.


Izgrađen je za riječku Rafineriju i upamćen kao prvi i jedini tanker Austro-Ugarske Monarhije.


Moreover, it was one of the first ships of its kind in the world, especially if we have in mind open-sea steel tankers.


Štoviše, kao jedan od prvih svjetskih brodova te vrste, posebno imajući na umu čelične tankere za plovidbu otvorenim morem.


The Etelka was built in the same year that the Shell company acquired its first tanker, nine years before Texaco.


»Etelka« se pojavljuje iste godine kada prvi tanker dobiva Shell, devet godina prije nego što će prvi tanker dobiti Texaco.


Being the product of its time, the Etelka was powered by a steam engine and wind energy.


Kao dijete svoga vremena, »Etelka« koristi pokretačku snagu parnoga stroja i vjetra.


It could reach a speed of 10 knots, had a capacity of 3,620 tons, was equipped with 12 tanks for liquids, and had a crew of 24.


Dostizala je brzinu od 10 čvorova, imala je nosivost 3.620 tona, a tekući teret primala u 12 spremnika. Plovila je s 24 člana posade.


It subsequently changed owners and names, becoming known as Vesta (from 1909, as part of the Austro-Hungarian navy), Marte (from 1922, as part of the Italian Royal navy), Procione (from 1926, owned by the Agip company), and then again as Marte (from 1936).


Mijenjajući vlasnike, mijenjala je i naziv. Brod je plovio kao »Vesta« (od 1909., u sastavu austro-ugarske ratne mornarice), »Marte« (od 1922., u sastavu talijanske Kraljevske mornarice), »Procione« (od 1926., u sastavu Agipa) te ponovo kao ″Marte″ (od 1936).


It was sunk in 1944 in the waters off Livorno.


U srpnju 1944. potopljen je pred Livornom.


The Szent István, one of the largest warships in Europe, was launched on the 17th of January 1914 from Rijeka’s Ganz-Danubius shipyard, a shipyard that was commissioned in 1905 thus continuing the local tradition of shipbuilding and becoming one of the most important production plants in Rijeka’s industry.


»Szent István«, jedan od najvećih europskih ratnih brodova, porinut je 17. siječnja 1914. u riječkom brodogradilištu Ganz-Danubius. Ono je započelo radom 1905., nastavljajući se na snažnu lokalnu tradiciju u izgradnji plovila i izrastajući među najznačajnije proizvodne jedinice riječke industrije.


To the order of the Austro-Hungarian Navy (K. und K. Kriegsmarine), the keel of the ship was laid in 1912, and the ship was finished in January 1916.


Narudžbom K. und K. Kriegsmarine, kobilica broda postavljena je 1912., a brod je završen u siječnju 1916.


It was 152 metres long and 28 metres wide, with lateral armour 280 mm thick.


Bio je dug 152 i širok 28 metara, s bočnim oklopom debljine 280 mm.


It could reach a speed of 21 knots and had a crew of 38 officers and 1,060 NCOs and sailors.


Hitao je brzinom od 21 čvora, s posadom od 38 časnika te 1.060 dočasnika i mornara.


The Szent István began her voyage at an unlucky moment.


»Szent István« je zaplovio u zao čas.


On the 10th of June 1918 it was hit by a torpedo in an ambush near the small island of Premuda. The pride of the Austro-Hungarian navy and Rijeka shipbuilding then sank forever to the bottom of the sea.


Kraj otočića Premude 10. lipnja 1918. doživio je iz zasjede torpedni udar pa će taj ponos austro-ugarske ratne mornarice i riječke brodogradnje završiti zauvijek na morskome dnu.


The shipyard continued producing destroyers, submarines, torpedo boats, mine layers, and cruisers.


Brodogradilište će nastaviti proizvodnju razarača, podmornica, torpiljarki, minopolagača, krstaša.


Today it operates under the name of 3. maj.


Danas radi pod imenom ″3. maj″.


The Hartera Paper Factory in Rijeka was founded in 1821 thanks to the entrepreneurial spirit of Andrija Ljudevit Adamić.


Tvornica papira, popularna Hartera, utemeljena je u Rijeci 1821. zahvaljujući poduzetničkom duhu Andrije Ljudevita Adamića.


In 1827, Walter C. Smith and Charles Meynier bought his manufacturing plant located along the River Rječina and expanded and modernised it, first by introducing the most up-to-date paper-producing machine in the Monarchy, and then in 1833 with the first steam engine in Croatia and the Balkans.


Njegovu manufakturu u dolini Rječine 1827. kupuju Walter C. Smith i Charles Meynier, koji pogon šire i osuvremenjuju. Najprije najmodernijim strojem za proizvodnju papira u Monarhiji, a 1833. prvim parnim strojem u Hrvatskoj i na Balkanu.


The factory had a workforce of one thousand in the 1870s.


Tvornica 1870-ih zapošljava tisuću radnika.


The paper from Rijeka was a top-quality product that was awarded many international quality prizes at the end of the century (Vienna, Barcelona, Budapest, Melbourne, Paris).


Riječki papir vrhunski je proizvod, što krajem stoljeća potvrđuju međunarodne nagrade za kvalitetu (Beč, Barcelona, Budimpešta, Melbourne, Pariz).


In 1940 it was exported to 40 countries worldwide.


Godine 1940. izvozi se u 40 zemalja diljem svijeta.


The production of cigarette paper started in 1890 and lasted for more than a century.


Proizvodnja cigaretnog papira započinje 1890. i ne zaustavlja se više od stotinu godina.


It was Europe’s second largest factory in 1991 in terms of the amount of cigarette paper produced.


Količinom tog proizvoda Tvornica je 1991. druga u Europi.


After operating for more than 180 years, the Hartera went bankrupt in the 1990s.


Nakon što je radila duže od 180 godina, Hartera sredinom 90-ih odlazi u stečaj.


However, some of the oldest buildings and machines have been preserved, including the impressive 83-metres-high chimney of the factory’s electric power plant from 1930.


Dio najstarijih objekata i strojeva sačuvan je, uključujući impozantan, 83 metra visok dimnjak tvorničke električne centrale iz 1930.


The Zeleni vir hydroelectric power station in Skrad, popularly known as the Munjara, is one of the oldest electric power plants still operating in Croatia.


Hidrocentrala »Zeleni vir« u Skradu, popularna »Munjara«, jedno je od najstarijih djelatnih hrvatskih postrojenja za proizvodnju električne energije.


The idea for its construction dates back to 1898, but its realisation had to wait until the beginning of World War I when F. Hatzinger made a general design for the plant.


Zamisao o njoj rodila se 1898., a ostvarenje zamisli odgađano je do početka Prvoga svjetskoga rata, kada F. Hatzinger potpisuje generalni nacrt objekta.


The Munjara was built in 1921 and commissioned in 1922.


»Munjara« je izgrađena 1921. i puštena u rad 1922.


The event took place in a strait canyon, some 70 metres from a high waterfall and the small pond of Zeleni vir.


Dogodilo se to u tijesnom kanjonu, 70-ak metara od visokog slapa i jezerca Zeleni vir.


It marked the beginning of electrification for the Gorski kotar region, including the construction of the first transformer stations in the Gorski kotar region, in Skrad and Kupjak (1921).


Njenom pojavom započelo je elektrificiranje Gorskoga kotara, uključujući izgradnju prvih goranskih trafostanica, u Skradu i Kupjaku (1921.).


The founder and co-owner of the power plant Josip Lončarić used the electricity produced for, among other things, his sawmill in Skrad, which thus became the first electric-powered sawmill in the area.


Inicijator izgradnje i suvlasnik »Munjare« Josip Lončarić, koristio je struju, uz ostalo, za rad svoje pilane u Skradu.


This sawmill operated from 1925 until 1975.


Ona je time postala prva goranska pilana pokretana električnom energijom, a radila je od 1925. do 1975.


In 1922, the hydroelectric power plant produced 91,190 kWh, in 1930 it produced 938,600 kWh, and in 1975 as much as 8,065 million kWh. In 1944 it provided electricity for the whole coastal region up to Crikvenica and Novi Vinodolski.

The Savannah nuclear ship, the first nuclear-powered merchant ship, was built to the plans of Erazmo Tićac.


Nuklearni brod »Savannah«, prvi trgovački brod na nuklearni pogon, izgrađen je prema projektu Erazma Tićca.


Born in Žurkovo in 1904, Erazmo went to schools in Žurkovo, Kostrena and Bakar, and made a career as a shipbuilding engineer in the USA. After the president Dwight Eisenhower announced his decision to build an experimental nuclear-powered merchant ship on the 15th of April 1955, the planning was entrusted to the firm The Sharp Brothers Inc., and Tićac became the leading planner.


Rođen u Žurkovu 1904., Erazmo se školovao u Žurkovu, Kostreni i Bakru, a karijeru brodograđevnog inženjera napravio je u SAD-u. Nakon što je predsjednik Dwight Eisenhower 15. travnja 1955. objavio odluku o izgradnji eksperimentalnoga trgovačkog broda na nuklearni pogon, projektiranje je povjereno tvrtki The Sharp Brothers Inc., a Tićac je postao glavni projektant.


The ship was launched on the 21st of July 1959; her maiden voyage started on the 31st of January 1962, and regular service started in 1963.


Brod je porinut 21. srpnja 1959. Prvo putovanje učinio je 31. siječnja 1962., u redovnu linijsku službu krenuo je 1963.


It had two reactors, could reach a speed of 21 knots and with one fuel of tank it could sail for almost three and a half years.


Imao je dva reaktora, dostizao brzinu od 21 čvora i jednim punjenjem goriva mogao je ploviti gotovo tri i pol godine.


It docked in Rijeka harbour several times, first on the 19th of November 1966.


U riječku je luku stizao u nekoliko navrata, prvi put 19. studenoga 1966.


On a plaque above the entrance to the ship’s lounge was written in golden letters: »Ben Tićac, naval architect«.


Na ploči postavljenoj na ulazu u brodski salon moglo se pročitati zlatnim slovima: »Ben Tićac, projektant broda«.


Erazmo got the name Ben when he received American citizenship.


Ime Ben Erazmo je dobio primanjem američkoga državljanstva.


After fulfilling all expectations, the Savannah continued to sail until 1971 when she was moored as a floating-museum in her home port of Savannah.


Ispunivši sva očekivanja, »Savannah« je plovio do 1971., kada je privezan kao brod-muzej u matičnoj luci Savannah.


Tićac also designed a special landing ship dock (LSD), a military transport ship Victory, and many other ships.


Tićac je ujedno projektirao specijalni desantni brod-dok (LSD – Landing Ship Dock), vojni transportni brod »Victory« te niz drugih brodova.


Until his death in 1968 he was a member of several renowned American associations of shipbuilding engineers.


Do smrti (1968.) bio je član prestižnih američkih udruga brodograđevnih inženjera.


The Veli Jože floating crane was named after the giant from a story by Vladimir Nazor.


Plovna dizalica »Veli Jože« nazvana je prema divu iz pripovijesti Vladimira Nazora.


It was built in 1949 in Rotterdam for the Brodospas boat salvaging and tugging company from Rijeka and came to the Adriatic Sea in 1950.


Izgrađena 1949. u Rotterdamu, kao vlasništvo Brodospasa, tadašnje riječke tvrtke za spašavanje i tegljenje brodova, u Jadran stiže 1950.


The Veli Jože is the largest and the most powerful crane on the Adriatic, and for many years in the whole Mediterranean area as well.


»Veli Jože« najveća je i najsnažnija dizalica na Jadranu, dugo godina je to i na Sredozemlju.


The colossus weighs 330 tons; it could lift 350 tons of cargo (three Diesel locomotives) at a height of 35 metres.


Gorostas je težak 330 tona, mogao je podići 350 tona tereta (tri dizelske lokomotive) na visinu od 35 metara.


Its arms are 40 metres tall, with an extension arm of 17 metres more.


Krakovi su mu visoki 40 metara, s produženom rukom od dodatnih 17 metara.


The pontoon on which it stands is a small island 40 metres long and 18 metres wide.


Ponton na kome se nalazi je otočić dug 40 i širok 18 metara.


During half a century, the Veli Jože lifted more than two thousand ships from the sea bed.


»Veli Jože« je u pola stoljeća podigao s morskog dna više od dvije tisuće brodova.


In the mid-1950s it was used to lift cut up parts of the largest passenger ship built in Italy, the Rex, which was lying stranded near Izola after being bombed in 1944.


Sredinom 1950-ih podizao je izrezane dijelove najvećeg u Italiji izgrađenog putničkog broda, »Rex«, koji je od 1944. bombardiran kod Izole i ležao nasukan.


The crane was also used to connect the arches of the Šibenik, Pag and Krk bridges.


Spajao je lukove Šibenskoga, Paškoga i Krčkoga mosta.


It became internationally famous for taking part in cleaning the Suez Canal in 1956 and 1957.


Svjetski je poznat udio te dizalice u raščišćavanju Sueskoga kanala 1956. i 1957.


Besides that, the Veli Jože operated in the Persian Gulf; it helped construct the first nuclear power plant in Spain on the banks of the River Tajo; it assembled oil and gas platforms, unloaded Westinghouse generators… Today it is moored in Split, the town where the Brodospas company has its headquarters today.


Uz to, »Veli Jože« radio je u Perzijskom zaljevu, na obali rijeke Tajo pomagao graditi prvu španjolsku nuklearku, montirao naftne i plinske platforme, iskrcavao Westinghausove generatore… Danas je privezan u Splitu, gradu u koji je Brodospas premjestio sjedište.


The steamship Uragan was launched, probably in the 1870s, in Hamburg as a ship for collecting waste from ships and piers.


Parobrod »Uragan« zaplovio je morem vjerojatno 1870-ih, u Hamburgu, kao brod za prikupljanje otpada s brodova i gatova.


The shape of the hull, with a cruiser’s stern and a bow like a sharp axe, riveted metal plates, a wooden deck and a telegraph with a “chain” transmission, led to the conclusion that the ship was built at a time when steam-powered ships were wining the battle against sailing ships.


Oblik trupa, s krstaškom krmom i pramcem poput oštre sjekire, zakovicama spojeni limovi, drvena paluba i telegraf s prijenosom na »lanac« svjedoče o gradnji u doba kada brodovi sa strojnim pogonom dobivaju utrku s jedrenjacima.


The Uragan is 21 metres long and 5 metres wide, weighs 40 tons and has a capacity of 250 tons.


Dug je 21 i širok 5 metara, težina mu je 40 a nosivost 250 tona.


It only came to the Adriatic after World War II, as part of war reparations.


Na Jadranu je završio poslije Drugoga svjetskoga rata, kao dio ratne odštete.


During the reconstruction of Rijeka’s harbour, it was used to transport stone blocks and other material for construction of the waterfront.


Za obnove riječke luke na krmenoj je palubi prevozio kamene blokove i ostalu građu za izgradnju riva.


It then changed owners, was used for underwater explorations, and “acted” in movies.


Mijenjao je vlasnike, služio istraživanju podmorja, »glumio« u filmovima.


Under the name Henriette it can be seen in the movie Around the World in 80 Days.


Pod imenom »Henriette« viđen je u filmu Put oko svijeta u 80 dana.


What was its last job?


Posljednji posao?


It appeared in the TV series The Winds of War with Robert Mitchum.


Statiranje u televizijskoj seriji Vjetrovi rata, s Robertom Mitchumom.


After it was moored for years in Sušak harbour, it sank to the bottom on the 20th of October 1999.


Nakon što je godinama bio privezan u sušačkom dijelu riječke luke, 20. listopada 1999. tone na dno.


It was then raised and left lying sideways on the Zagreb pier, counting its last days.


Izvučen je i ostavljen na Zagrebačkoj obali, na boku, odbrojavajući zadnje dane.


But that was not the end.


No, to nije bio kraj.


The refitting of the ship was completed in December 2004, and since 2005 it has been moored in Rijeka harbour.


Obnova broda završena je u prosincu 2004., a od ožujka 2005. izložen je u riječkoj luci.


The Uragan is a monument to the naval tradition of Rijeka and all harbours worldwide.


»Uragan« je brod-spomenik pomorskoj tradiciji Rijeke i svih Rijeka na svijetu.

Currently, the market has a lot of products such as cream for breast andgel for the breast under the name of the products for enlarging the breasts, a large part of them contain estrogen dietilstilbestrol especially, the use of such products may increase breast to some extent, but the effect is only temporary - when you stop to use preparations breast return to its original state, with the preparations you can cause change in pigment, black speck, menstrual cycle disturbance and other side effects.


Trenutno na tržištu ima puno proizvoda poput krema za grudi, pasti za grudi pod nazivom proizvoda za povećanje grudi, veliki dio njih sadrži estrogen posebno dietilstilbestrol, upotreba takvih preparata možda će povećati grudi do neke mjere, ali će učinak biti samo privremen - kad prestanete s upotrebom preparata grudi se vrate u prvobitno stanje, uz to ti preparati mogu uzrokovati promjenu pigmenta, crne pjegice, poremećaj menstrualnog ciklusa i druge popratne učinke.


Girls in teenager age with normal menstruation have enough estrogen in your body and if it enters a considerable amount of estrogen in the body such as the preparations for the increase in the breast will be reduced secretion internal estrogen produced by the body and thus prevent the development of breasts, which is exactly the opposite of the desired effect.


Djevojke u tineđerskoj dobi s normalnom menstruacijom imaju dovoljno estrogena u svom tijelu i ako se unese znatna količina estrogena u tijelo poput preparata za povećanje grudi smanjit će se lučenje unurašnjeg estrogena koje proizvodi samo tijelo i tako spriječiti razvoj grudi što je upravo suprotno od željenog učinka.

Oralno uzimanje ljekova za povećanje grudi može biti još gore, zato jer neprirodno stimulira povečano lučenje estrogena u tijelu da bi se povećale grudi, ali zbog povečanog nivoa estrogena s grudima povečava se i struk.
