“When the pearls of nature were sown, on this soil an owerflowing handful was gathered”
During the Middle ages Lepetane was called “The Place of Saint Lovrienec” for the church which existed there and which is connected to a legend of three brothers – saints: Andria, Peter and Lovrienec. “Lepetane” got its current name by the nicknames of some Perast families (“Lepetanus”) which owned land in this area.
There was a stone pit and it was in use until the mid-20 th century. The stone was used for walkways, terraces and plazas in the Bay. Nowadays the village is best known for the ferry crossing kamenari-lepetane, and the resulting traffic congestion in the summer.
