Tito's villa „Galeb“ 12 - Herceg Novi, Montenegro

ENG VILLA GALEB, or TITO’S VILLA, built in 1976, is located within the Igalo Institute - a complex that was once used by the lifelong president of SFR Yugoslavia Josip Broz Tito. Tito's first stay in Igalo was in 1976 in the old spa, in the same year a villa was built in six months, designed by the architect from Herceg Novi Milorad Petijevic, and Tito came to visit on January 25, 1977. The facility consists of 5,500 square meters on four levels, while the park, which horticultural engineer Ante Sterniša was tasked to design, covers 75,000 square meters. The villa was designed for a very comfortable stay of 30 guests, with the possibility of using medical and rehabilitation services. It has hosted many world statesmen, but also personalities from public life. Tito stayed in the villa four times, therefore a part of the state affairs was conducted at this very residence. „Villa Galeb was one of 33 presidential villas throughout the former Yugoslavia intended for President Tito. Unlike other villas, this one was primarily intended for the therapeutic treatment of President Tito. The very best that every former republic had to offer was brought here during its construction. So, there are carpets from Macedonia, the famous stone from Brač, the bars are from Slovenia, the furniture is from Bosnia and Slovenia, the marble was partially from Serbia, and so on. Several statesmen and presidents of that time stayed in Villa Galeb, and the most interesting fact is that Prince Charles, who met with Tito in Villa Galeb in 1978, also stayed in the villa. Tito's last stay in Villa Galeb was perhaps one of the most significant moments in the history of this area. It was on April 15, 1979, that a catastrophic earthquake hit the Montenegrin coast. At the time of the earthquake, Tito was staying in Villa Galeb. Once the quake stopped, Tito saw the enormous damage that had been caused by the earthquake, and within an hour he demanded only his driver and adjutant with him, and drove down the Herceg Novi Riviera to see the damage for himself. I personally believe that for Montenegro this turned out to be a lucky occurrence in a disastrous situation - the fact that Tito found himself here at that moment. The significance of this building did not end with Tito's death. From the historical point of view, one of the most important moments was the meeting which happened at this very table on September 17, 1991, when Lord Carrington from the European Union met with the presidents of all former Yugoslav republics. It was the last meeting of its kind, and unfortunately a failed attempt to stop the war in Yugoslavia“ – Alen Filipovic, guide. MNE VILA GALEB, ili - TITOVA VILA, od 1976 godine, nalazi se u sklopu Instituta Igalo, kao kompleks koji je nekada koristio doživotni predsjednik SFR Jugoslavije Josip Broz Tito. Titov prvi boravak u Igalu bio je 1976. godine u staroj banji, iste godine za šest mjeseci sagrađena je i vila, koju je projektovao arhitekta iz Herceg Novog Milorad Petijević, a Tito je došao u posjetu već 25. januara 1977. godine. Objekat čini 5.500 metara kvadratnih na četiri nivoa, dok se oko vile na 75.000 metara kvadratnih prostire park . Vila je projektovana za izuzetno komforman boravak 30 gostiju, uz mogućnost korištenja medicinskih i usluga rehabilitacije. „Vila Galeb bila je jedna od 33 predsjedničke vile širom bivše Jugoslavije koja je bila namijenjena za predsjednika Tita. Za razliku od ostalih vila, ova je bila prvenstveno namijenjena za terapijsko liječenje predsjednika Tita. Ono najbolje što je imala svaka bivša republika, donošeno je ovdje tokom gradnje. Tako da imate tepihe iz Makedonije, čuveni brački kamen, šankovi su iz Slovenije, namještaj iz Bosne i Slovenije, jedan dio mermera iz Srbije itd. Više državnika i predsjednika država iz onog vremena je boravilo u vili Galeb, a najinteresantnija činjenica je da je u vili boravio i danas aktuelni princ Čarls, koji se tu sa Titom sastao 1978. godine. Titov zadnji boravak u vili Galeb bio je možda jedan od najznačajnih momenata u istoriji ovog područja. To je bio 15. april 1979. godine, kada je katastrofalni zemljotres pogodio crnogorsko primorje. U momentu samog zemljotresa Tito se nalazio upravo u vili Galeb. Kada je potres prestao, Tito je vidio da je ogromna šteta nastala od zemljotresa, i u roku od jednog sata zahtijevao je samo svog vozača i ađutanta, i provezao se cijelom dužinom hercegnovske rivijere kako bi sam vidio nastalu štetu. To je bila sreća u nesreći za Crnu Goru, što se Tito u tom trenutku zatekao upravo ovdje. Važnost ove zgrade nije prestala Titovom smrću. Sa istorijske strane jedan od važnijih momenata bio je sastanak upravo za ovim stolom 17. septembra 1991. godine kada su se tu sastali sa jedne strane lord Karington iz Evropske unije, a sa druge strane predsjednici svih bivših jugoslovenskih republika. To je bio zadnji sastanak te vrste, i nažalost neuspjeli pokušaj da se zaustavi rat u Jugoslaviji“ – Alen Filipović, vodič.
