Senj is a town in the northern part of Croatian Adriatic coast, located in the foothills of Mala Kapela and Velebit mountains, just across the Island of Krk. This location, throughout history, provided Senj with a very good position to fight off invasions. The town's symbol is actually a defensive structure - fortress called Nehaj which served as a fortification against Ottoman invasions during the 16th and 17th centuries. Nehaj fortress provided a base for the Uskok guerilla fighters who fought off Ottomans but also engaged in occasional fights with Venice. If you'd like to find out more about Nehaj and Uskoks (Uskoci) you can take a look at my previous video about the fortress:

The town of Senj especially flourished in the 18th century after the construction of Jozefina road (named after the Habsburg Emperor Joseph II) which links the Adriatic coast via Senj and the town of Karlovac and further on to different parts of Habsburg Monarchy. The road is still in use and is known as one of the three historic roads which connect Croatian inland with the coast (the other two roads are: Karolina and Lujzijana). The road's route has been slightly altered as it acquired its modern form. If you are interested, I have filmed the entire road in Karlovac - Senj direction so you can check it out:
