\u0160avnik (Montenegrin Cyrillic: \u0428\u0430\u0432\u043d\u0438\u043a) is a small town in northern Montenegro. It has a population of 570. \u0160avnik is a relatively new settlement, founded in 1861. It was populated by internal migrants from other parts of Montenegro, mostly craftsmen, which were needed by local farmers. The town quickly became a center for the Drobnjaci region, and incorporated a post office, school, primary court, and military post.<\/p>\n

Industrialization during the SFRY era mostly bypassed \u0160avnik, so did any major transit road or rail links, so the economy of town went into stagnation. Population of \u0160avnik and entire municipality is since in slow but steady decrease. Most of the residents are migrating to Nik\u0161i\u0107 and southern Montenegro, and \u0160avnik is often a synonym for a poor and deteriorating town.<\/p>\n

The future road Risan – Nik\u0161i\u0107 – \u0160avnik – \u017dabljak, and proximity of \u017dabljak as a main mountain tourist resort in Montenegro may boost \u0160avnik’s economic prospects.<\/p>\n
