History
WWII
Towards the end of WWII, after the success of a certain Partisan offensive, Vrbovsko postal telephone operator Anka Paviša, wife of Matija Paviša, overheard a conversation of some of the "occupiers" indicating they planned to exact revenge for that success on the Serb inhabitants of Vujnovići. According to Mladen Marušić, Anka was able to warn them of this beforehand and no one perished. After the war, Anka was made post office manager.[4]
