Mičevac Fortress
Mičevac overlooks the right bank of the Trebišnjica upstream from Trebinje. A compact enclosure and five towers survive as an archaeological site. Historical research connects the fortress and its settlement with the Pavlović and Kosača domains before Ottoman conquest in 1466. The model follows a published plan in simplified form, retaining low open walls. The nearby historic location of Arslanagić Bridge should not be confused with its present position after relocation.
