Široki Brijeg means "wide hill" in Croatian. It is sometimes referred to as Široki Brig or simply Široki ("wide"). From 1952 until October 16, 1992, the town was officially called Lištica after the river that runs through it. The town is 20–25 km (12–16 mi) from Mostar, 29 km (18 mi) from Međugorje, and 88 km (55 mi) from the Adriatic coast (Ploče). The Široki Brijeg Municipality today numbers around 30,000 people, and the town itself about 13,000. The area of the municipality amounts to 1,168 ha (2,886 acres; 5 sq mi). The center of town is at 270 m (886 ft) above sea level, while its area is known as "lower Herzegovina". Almost the entire northern part of the municipality itself, however, belongs to "high Herzegovina", the highest point being the Bile stine ("White Rocks") near Donji Crnač. More information...
