Stražica Lighthouse on the island of Prvić in the Adriatic Sea was built in 1875 and consists of a small stone house and a 5m (16feet) tall lighthouse tower.[1] A crew of lightkeepers were stationed on the island until it was made fully automated in 1974. In 1993 the natural gas-powered system was replaced with solar panels and is today remotely controlled by Plovput, the state-owned company for maritime traffic which controls the entire network of Croatian lighthouses. Until 1974, the lighthouse crew were the only inhabitants of Prvić,[2] and until the early 2000s it was believed that Prvić held the distinction of being the largest uninhabited Croatian island,[3] but this was refuted when new measurements published in 2004 showed that the island of Žut is bigger by some .[4]
