Aržano

Aržano

Aržano is a small village in Dalmatinska Zagora, Croatia, situated near the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina at an altitude of 650 meters.[1] The estimated population within a seven kilometer radius of the area is 754.[2] The population has been dwindling in recent years. However there is an influx of descendants that arrive during the holiday periods, mainly from the larger cities, Split and Zagreb.

The village is known for having the annual "Josip Jović Memorial Tournament," a 6-a-side soccer tournament honoring the death of local Josip Jović, the first victim of the 1991-1995 Croatian War of Independence.[3] Coordinates: 43°35′N 17°00′E / 43.58°N 17.0°E / 43.58; 17.0
