Imotski
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Imotski is a small town situated in the Dalmatian hinterland of Croatia. The town population is 4,347 whilst the total municipal population is 10,213 (2001). The town is located close to the border with Bosnia-Herzegovina, by the town of Posušje. The nearest coastal town is Makarska.
Imotski is known for its medieval fortress on the rocks of Blue Lake. Another phenomenon is the Red Lake which looks like the eye in the scenery. Both lakes are said to be connected with underground channels to the Adriatic sea. Unlike other towns in the area, Imotski had an educational system which consisted of primary and secondary schools from as early as the beginning of the 20th century. The secondary school was founded in 1912 when Imotski was part of the Austro-Hungarian empire. Probably its most famous son would be Zvonimir Boban, the captain of the Croatian national football team which finished 3rd in the 1998 FIFA World Cup.
