Šibenik had the first ever street lights on the alternating current system, and that was Nikola Tesla's doing and a tremendous achievement. He built a power generator on the Krka river (Jaruga), got the AC electricity into Šibenik, and the electrical lights were powered by it. Not the first street light ever! Other cities like Paris and London had gas lights, and later with the so called electric arc lighting, but on the direct current (DC) electrical system. This was in 1878, that they had the electric arc lighting, while Šibenik got the electric lights on the AC system in 1895 or so.

Yes, and I don't want to downplay the fact that Šibenik had the first in the world AC powered street lights, which is truly astonishing. This was the future! Nikola Tesla was a great man, and I can't even imagine a project of that magnitude playing out in the Šibenik area at the end of the 19th century. An unbelievable achievement, and he chose Šibenik and the Krka river for the second in the world hydro-powered generator. :)

Not quite... Sibenik was not the first to have AC powered street lights, there were others before it. It was first with polyphase system of alternating current but this is really stretching it just so you can say you were first. For years, during the communism, this falsehood of a small town in Yugoslavia having street lights before New York was pushed even in schoolbooks. Also, Tesla had nothing to do with this particular plant other than indirectly as his patent was used. In 1893, Šibenik mayor Ante Šupuk and Vjekoslav Meichsner started a business and obtained a license to use the waters of river Krka, and in 1894 they obtained permission to set up electrical power lines on municipal property in order to start lighting the streets with electric power. The construction of Jaruga started in 1894 and lasted for 16 months. The two generators (42 Hz, 550 kW each) and the transformers were produced and installed by the Hungarian company Ganz. The transmission line from the power plant to the city of Šibenik was 11 km (6.8 mi) long on wooden towers, and the municipal distribution grid 3000V/110 V included six transformer stations. The original Jaruga system supplied 340 street lights and some electrified houses in Šibenik.

It still preserves it's unique lifestyle, humor and mentality. The narrow streets with steps and buildings with ornaments create a very special get lost and discover experience and still not too crowded in the summer. The two National parks that are near as well as the impressive, culturally rich rural background area makes Šibenik amazing place to visit. Thank you Paul for this video.

I would just like to follow up on the comment about football. The very fact that the fan group Funcuti survives in a city with only 30,000 inhabitants (with surrounding towns 42,000) is impressive. Especially when we take into account that the football, basketball and futsal clubs from Šibenik have not achieved any major successes for a long time. It is true that the majority of people from the center of Šibenik ("fetivi" from Šibenik) exclusively support HNK Šibenik, GKK Šibenik and MNK Šibenik 1983. People from the surrounding areas of Šibenik are definitely Hajduk's fans. Even if we talk about the other cities of Šibenik - Knin County, everyone supports Hajduk. At the same time, nobody in Šibenik and the surrounding area is a real Dinamo fan. What is a phenomenon is that Šibenik's Funcuti, although they are from Dalmatia and are closer to Split than Zadar, actually have friendly relations with the fan group Bad Blue Boys from Zagreb, and feel contempt for Torcida from Split. Precisely because of friendly relations with BBB, the members of the Funcuti group are more inclined to support Dinamo when Dinamo play against Hajduk. And precisely because they despise Torcida, they like to emphasize that Dinamo is better than Hajduk and that they would like them to win or be champions ahead of Hajduk. And Torcida, in order to insult and humiliate them, points out that the Funcuti prefer Dinamo more than their Šibenik and that they even know to celebrate when Dinamo scores a goal against Šibenik (which is not true). When we talk about numbers and statistics, in the 11 matches that HNK Šibenik (football club) played at home, the average number of spectators is 1269, which is very low. When you take into account that there were about 1,500 Hajduk fans at the match with Hajduk, and the same number of Dinamo fans at the match with Dinamo, the real average of loyal Šibenik fans is even lower. Of course, many more citizens of the city of Šibenik support Šibenik clubs, but they do not feel a great connection and do not attend matches. As for Funcuti, there are 50 to a maximum of 250 of them at matches. For the sake of comparison, when Hajduk plays in Šibenik, surely as many, if not more, people from Šibenik come to the game to support Hajduk. And also when Hajduk plays in Split and in other cities, many Hajduk fans from Šibenik regularly go to those matches to support their club. Also, there is DPH Šibenik (Šibenik Society of Friends of Hajduk) which every year conducts membership campaigns. In 2022, that society had 3,228 members. True, that association includes Hajduk fans, not only from Šibenik and the surrounding area, but also from some neighboring towns such as Skradin, Knin, Pirovac, Stankovci, Murter, Perković, Tisno, Jezera, etc. However, even without people from of those places, this society would have twice as many members as the number of people who attend Šibenik's matches. In any case, the point of this comment is not to show that there are more Hajduk fans in Šibenik than those who support FC Šibenik. Considering that more and more people from Šibenik are moving elsewhere and many people from the surrounding area are moving to the city - the number is equal. I just wanted to point out that the claim of greater love for Dinamo than Hajduk in Šibenik does not hold true. For real people from city Šibenik, Šibenik is certainly in the first place, and then no one else. Many others support Šibenik, with Hajduk in second place. As I said before, there are also many "pure-blooded" Hajduk fans. However, there is a loud minority that, due to the provocation of the people of Split, often creates the impression that in Šibenik, Dinamo is more popular than Hajduk. They say that Šibenik is another face of Dalmatia, but... I wouldn't really say so! They are special, but they are not different. The local patriotism of Funcuti is appreciated, but the unnatural connection with Zagreb due to the quarrel and contempt for Torcida is beyond common sense. My grandmother was from Šibenik and she always said: "For me, Šibenik clubs always come first. But as a true Dalmatian, you know what Hajduk is. He is also in my heart." Perhaps it would be more interesting and more accurate to write the fact that Šibenik is the only city in Dalmatia that does not have a single graffiti dedicated to Hajduk in the center and nearby neighborhoods. It's true and it's because of the hatred between the fan groups Torcida and Funcuti. Such graffiti would probably end up smeared. In the city, you can only see graffiti dedicated to Šibenik clubs, and this is very special compared to other cities in Dalmatia. For example, in Zadar there are also many graffiti dedicated to Zadar clubs, but alongside them there are also many graffiti dedicated to Hajduk. In Zadar, Hajduk's graffiti still stands because the Torcida and Tornado fan groups have friendly relations.

Šibenik archipelago is sometimes called the belly button of the Adriatic. An abundance of islands, bays and beaches scattered in a very small area make a world of it's own. Having even the smallest boat in Šibenik, allows you to reach dozens of bays and beaches quickly and safely. Add to that nearby Krka waterfalls, amazing old town with two UNESCO sights, easy access via highway and two nearby airports, and you have the sweetspot of the Adriatic, the place with the biggest potential on the coast.

As a local, there is no better sight than seeing all the empty houses and apartments during winter, waiting for tourists and summer, while you, a local can't find anything normal to rent for a year. If there is something normal it is only up to 01.06. Walking the streets and every 15 meters you see a "3*" plaque on the front wall. Locals have no place to live, and everything is catering the tourists and tourism. Football is a monstrosity. More like criminal organizations with criminals as fans (what else can you call people that teach their kids to throw stones and spit on Hajduk fans or Dinamo fans). There was a mother with a baby that needed regular visits to the hospital. Her car was broken so she borrowed a car from a friend from Split (with Split licence plates). During a football match, they sliced her tires in front of the hospital while she was inside with the baby. Sick mentally disturbed creatures, not football fans. Buses that never come according to schedule. Local stores increasing prices by 30% during summer June - September. Yes, the bottom line every country is *almost* good if you have money.

Interestingly no-one picked you up on your quote about Sibenik & Dinamo! Which is not true. Sibenik & area around Sibenik are following Hajduk more than any other club. Before this quote you used to be my favorite non-Croatian person in Croatia. Not any more. 😊

@@PaulBradbury That's not the point. I'm more worried about your bs story about Sibenik not following Hajduk. You, who lives in Croatia & even more importantly in Dalmatia/Hvar, should know how sensitive this is.

Been to Croatia many times and loved it but Sibernik was definitely the worst, really boring and the restaurants all had practically the same menu

Thanks for your comment. When you say it was boring, how did it differ from the rest of Croatia and what kind of holiday were you looking for? Re restaurants, did you try Pelegini, which is consistently named the best restaurant in Dalmatia?

Yes I stop in 10 coastal towns While in Croatia. Srebrino, Dubrovnik, Stobrec, Split, Sebinik, Skradin, Zadar, kirkvencia, Rejeka and Pula . Sebinik was very mystical, Dark and intriguing . Felt more untouched . Would love to go back . Don`t know why but I didn`t get a great feel for Zadar. Pula may have been my favorite . Dubrovnik is most Magnificat . New on my list are the Isands and Omis. Have you been to Omis , love to hear about it

@@PaulBradbury You are welcome. I like Sibenik very much, more then my own town Split, as thesedays it does not look like it used to be, people do not talk like we used to, so I like cities that are more natural, less destructed by concrete construction. And ofc, Zadar was dalmatian Dresden, heavily shelled in WW2, and destroyed so it cannot represent its history like Sibenik can

This is a HUGE lesson for ALL Croatian "smartheads" who only searching for the FLAWS in our amazing country. I know so many people from western europe, who would come TOMOROW to live in Croatia, only if they could. Many of them already live. Their children going to schools here and ALL of them are united in ONE thing. Moving in Croatia was the BEST decidion of their lives. So many English people for example live in Zarad and the region. Frontman of UB40, pop band, lives in Zadar since long ago. His children speak Croatian same as their school friends. Sir Anthony Hopkins bought a house in Istra recently.... So, my fellow Croatians, lets learn how to LOVE our country, and how to be aware that we live in a small piece of PARADISE on earth. Cozz many many people would DIE, to come and live here. And YOU want to leave, and be somebodies servant in some grey and depresive country. DON'T GO. And YOU who are gone already, think TWICE and come back to our beautiful homeland. Croatia needs you. Hat to the floor to mr Paul Bradbury for opening our eyes. We are happy to have you here sir. Thank you for so great observing of our stunning country.
