Osolnica (Macedonian: Осолница, Turkish: Osolnitsa) is an abandoned village in the municipality of Centar Župa, North Macedonia.

Demographics

[edit]

Osolnicа (Ostolnica) is recorded in the Ottoman defter of 1467 as a village in the vilayet of Upper Dibra, part of the timar of Topçi Ali. The settlement was recorded as abandoned.[1]

According to Ottoman tahrir defters from the 1520s, 16 villages (all present-day Centar Župa villages) associated with Kala-i Kodžadžik had no Muslim population. However, the Muslim population increased in subsequent years. This was likely part of the Islamization of Macedonia under Turkish rule.[2]

The village, when previously inhabited, was traditionally populated by a Turkish speaking community consisting of Turks.[3]

According to the 2002 census, the village had a total of 0 inhabitants.[4]
