Badnjevice Fort

Badnjevice Fort is a medieval multi-story fortification constructed in the Suvaja river canyon of the same name. It was built in the first half of the 15th century by Herceg Stjepan Vukčić Kosača, the Grand Duke of Bosnia. High above the fort, on the precipice of a rocky plateau, rises a tall square-shaped tower. Its location makes it very inaccessible, however it is one of the most impressive medieval fortifications in Dalmatia. At the southern end of the abovementioned canyon there is a hill called Kokića glavica, with the remains of a prehistoric hillfort and fortification dating from Late Antiquity. Below Badnjevica fort is a bridge across the Suvaja with its earliest construction elements dating from the 17th or 18th century. A statue of Christ the King is located next to the bridge.
