Borač Fortress

The ruined complex beside Varošište was a principal seat of the Radinović–Pavlović family. Rogatica municipality describes its extensive foundations above the left bank of the Prača and records Ottoman capture before 1466, followed by abandonment. A possible older namesake lies elsewhere near Borač village; the atlas does not merge those two locations. This model is a limited study of the surviving defended ridge, not a reconstruction of the entire noble town.
