Malo Grablje, translated as "Little Grablje", is an uninhabited settlement in Croatia. It is located within the island of Hvar, which is mostly populated on its beaches and coastline.[1]
The village was evacuated in the 1960s, with the entire population moving to the coastal village Milna.[1] The evacuation was so complete that some graves were exhumed and bodies moved to Milna as well.[1] No property was ever made available for sale, despite potential interest. All families within the village had shared a single surname "Tudor" - it is both claimed and disputed that there is a link to Henry VIII.[1]
