Discovering History: The Best Fortresses in Bosnia to Visit in 2026

Bosnia and Herzegovina isn’t just about chevapi and coffee (though, let’s be real, that’s 40% of the appeal). It is a land of stone guardians. For centuries, empires have clashed here—Romans, Ottomans, Austro-Hungarians—and they all left behind some serious real estate.

If you are planning your travels for 2026, you need to put these fortresses on your bucket list. We aren’t talking about boring piles of rubble where you need a PhD to understand what you’re looking at. We are talking about epic citadels perched on cliffs, gothic towers that look like they belong in a fairytale, and legends of dragons.

Leave a Comment / Plan your Trip, Destinations, Things to Do /

Walk into many Bosnian towns and you’ll notice something quietly extraordinary: minarets, church spires, and synagogue roofs sharing the same skyline, their sounds layering into a unique urban chorus.

Bosnia’s religious landscape — Muslim, Orthodox, Catholic, and Jewish — did not evolve in isolation; it grew in conversation. That is why people call this country the “Jerusalem of Europe.” This is not hype; it’s an invitation to explore how faith communities built, debated, celebrated, and often rebuilt together.

Una National Park: Why You Should Visit Bihać & Štrbački Buk

Imagine a place where a river refuses to be ordinary — it rushes, it curls, it throws curtains of water off limestone lips and then calms again into glassy pools so clear you can see trout rehearsing their next move. This is Una National Park, and at its heart (and heart-stopping center) sits Štrbački Buk — a waterfall so spectacular it makes postcards blush.

Picture this: a wide, wind-brushed plateau, the sky so big it could swallow your camera, and hundreds of horses moving across the grass like living brushstrokes. No fences, no stables — just freedom, thunderous hooves, and a soundtrack of bell-like whinnies. Welcome to Livno, the place in Bosnia where wild horses of Livno still roam, and where a day trip feels less like tourism and more like a fragment of a movie you get to be in.

If you think skiing in Europe automatically means selling a kidney to afford a weekend in the Alps… breathe. Put the kidney back. There’s a place where snow is real, mountains are dramatic, ski passes don’t cost your monthly rent, and a cup of mulled wine is still (miraculously) under €3.
