[HR] Okuklje

Okuklje je najstarije otočko mjesto na obali. Nastaje u 15.st. Spada u najzaštićenije Mljetske uvale pa je omiljeno sidrište nautičara. U prošlosti, bilo je to mjesto ribara i pomoraca. Tijekom 17. st. gusari i hajduci nekoliko su puta opljačkali i popalili Okuklje, a 1693. god. pri upadu u selu sve su popljačkali i spalili. Narod bježi u Korita i Maranoviće. Selo je opustjelo. Na brijegu iznad luke nalazi se crkva sv. Nikole, zaštitnika pomoraca i ribara. Sagrađena je početkom 16.st. Pri upadu hajduka i gusara 1693. god. i ta je crkva opljačkana i većim dijelom spaljena. Obnovljena je 1990. god. Biskup dubrovački Želimir Puljić izvršio je posvetu oltara. Tako je nakon punih 297 godina počelo ponovno održavanje obreda, a najvažniji je onaj koji se održava ljeti, svake zadnje subote u srpnju mjesecu.

Cache: Ne dignut ljubimac s kapicom, dnevnik. NEMA olovku.
