The inhabitants of Mala Kladusa are mostly refugees from Cetingrad and Dreznik, and between 1790 and 1878 they had chances to cure more than 1200 wounded and a few thousand ill people in barber's shops in Gornja and Donja Baraka. Gornja and Donja Baraka are good places for hospital (barber's shop) because they are near the river Kladusnica, and in the wood. In barber's shop worked a barber who cured people and also prepared cures from local herbs. Also barber's wore bags with cures and medical instruments, and had duty to help people even if it was against law or patient was poor.
