Panagie offers panoramic views of the bay. In this village, according to the 2011 census, there are 802 inhabitants.
The village was named after the church, which is one of the most well-known landmarks in its very place, and is dedicated to the Holy Virgin (in Greek, Παναγία means the Virgin). In its rich history, the village of Panagia was, after the liberation of the Ottoman rule, in 1821 even the estate of the island.

4. Olive Oil Museum (Brač island, Croatia)-established in 1864
At the beginning of the 20th century, Kruno and Mandica Krstulović rearranged and upgraded the oilfield and bought a new triangle from Trieste – ” Thomas Holt ”, which continued the successful processing of olive oil until 1963. After that year oil mills ceased to work. The reason for this is the emergence of new technologies in the processing process, with which old machines could not compete.
In order to gain a place for the historical significance of old oil mills, and to show the production process in the old days, in July 2013 Kruno Cukrov, Kruno Krstulović’s grandson, renews his family and rebuilds the oil refinery in the Museum of Oil. The museum is open to the public as a historical and cultural monument of olive growing on the island of Brač.
Cukrov family continues family tradition. In its plants, within OPG and with modern machines, the family continues to produce quality olive oil. The quality of this oil is best demonstrated by the fact that oil has already been awarded and won the bronze medal for extra virgin olive oil at the Postira 2014 Oblique.
Today there is an olive oil taster in the museum. If you visit the museum, you can taste and buy top quality olive oil in the tasters.
The museum is very interesting and at least unusual. The island of Brac has become richer with this facility, and the museum itself is a kind of attraction visited by a large number of guests every year.
