Desne is one of nine villages of the Municipality of Kula Norinska, in the Dubrovnik-Neretva County, on Croatia's Dalmatian coast.

Former speaker of the Croatian Parliament Luka Bebić and the well-known Croatian-American winemaker Mike Grgich were born in Desne.

It was too small to accommodate all the denizens, so the Makarska bishop Fabijan Blašković in 1779 ordered a chapel of the same size to be built.

Afterwards, archbishop Ante Jurić consecrated the church on the holiday of Saint Liborius on 23 July 1991.

Since the populace from nearby hamlets left, mass is held only during the holiday of Saint Nicholas and by need.
