Osp, Istria

Osp lies at the foothills of the Karst Edge. It was first mentioned in the 11th century. From Osp - where we had a break and met some locals and learned about the history of the village and were offered original homemade schnapps - we continued our trail to Tinjan.

Before the WW II Osp counted about 600 people, today only 160, mostly old. Many houses are abandoned.
