The island of "Goli" - "Croatian Alcatraz"

Work day - When they did not beat other prisoners or were interrogated, the inmates spent their day crushing stones. If this job was too light, they were not allowed to use any tools but would put the stone on one bigger and hit it with another.
They received two decilitres of water a day for refreshment, which, especially in the summer months, was too small so they grew fatigued even faster.
More dependable prisoners who worked better with the guards gained easier and more productive jobs. They worked in sawmills, made pebbles in a stone crusher, repaired smaller ships, produced iron structures and tiles. All this mainly for the Italian market.
