Škrebin Kamen

After the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, former Austrian-Hungarian empire built a vast railway network, mainly intended for transport od wood which the area was aboundant in. In the region of Vrela village the hill’s steep slope extended all the way to the banks of the Usora river. Being barrier for the railway line to come, the slope of the hill was removed by means of mines, leaving the north-west face of the hill in bare rock. That very rock is actually named Škrebin Kamen, after the local family, the Škrebić’s

The name also sometimes refers to both railway stations (up to 1968) and both bus stops (after 1968) to the east and south-west from the hill. Sometimes it refers to the village also.
