Dubrovnik Fortress
This Bosnian Dubrovnik occupies a steep hill near Kopošići and Ilijaš. The museum describes an evolving fortified residence: a western court, a square defensive tower, additional enclosed ground and an octagonal eastern tower. The remains reveal several building phases rather than one uniform castle. Its inland setting above the Zenik stream and Misoča river distinguishes it from the Adriatic city of the same name.
