Goršeti is a village in Croatia, under the Brod Moravice township, in Primorje-Gorski Kotar County.

Geography

It is south of the Kupa, across from Vrt, west of Kavrani and Laze pri Predgradu, east of Donji Šajn and Klepeće Selo, and southeast of Gornji Šehovac and Donja Lamana Draga.

History

Before the breakup of Yugoslavia, Saint Lucy's Day was celebrated in Goršeti by residents from both sides of the river.[3]: 106 

Goršeti had been proposed as the location for the bridge in Blaževci, but Goršeti was given the choice between a bridge or a school, and they chose the school (now in ruins). The school was built with stones carried by workers on their shoulders from the Slovene side of the river. The road from Štefanci to Goršeti was built by the Šumarija Vrbovsko while felling Ostrya carpinifolia for axles and wheels.[3]: 109 

On 18 July 2023, the wind of a thunderstorm hit the 35/20 KV Kupjak substation, leaving Goršeti without power.[4][5]
