From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tunnels on Raduč are complex of World War Two military underground tunnels dug deep in the hill Raduč, Murter.[1]

Tunnels on Raduč.

Use

[edit]

In a time of the World War II, the tunnels were used as a military hiding spot. The bunker had 3 cannons that were supposed to defend Murter (also that whole part of Croatian coast) from Italian warship. That almost led to a War between Croatia and Italy. It is unknown what really happened that day.

Today

[edit]

Tunnels are today popular touristic destination for everybody who is spending their time on Murter. Tunnels are in complete darkness and whoever is planning going there needs to take a flashlight or any other good source of light.

Around 20% of the tunnels are inaccessible, since the deepest parts were accessible only by ladders, and they unfortunately collapsed.
