The period of Italian rule

Continuing the trend of tourist development, Fažana experienced a true economic boom between the two World Wars. In 1930 there were 1100 inhabitants living on an area of 2000 hectares. Apart from the very well-developed receptive tourist infrastructure such as 2 hotels, 13 restaurants and inn, 3 garages and gas station, there were also a number of factories: fish processing plant, toffee factory, production plant of liqueurs, shipyard, mineral water bottling plant… An interesting fact is that such a small town as Fažana had its post office, telegraph, telephone, elementary school and kindergarten, police station, town doctor, veterinarian as well as regular connections to Pula, Vodnjan and Rovinj.
