About Stolac
Stolac is a place where history can be felt at every step. Its best-known symbol is the Radimlja necropolis of stećci, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Above the town rises Vidoški Fortress, while the canyon of the Bregava River hides old mills and watermills that bear witness to the centuries-old coexistence of people and water. Stolac was once the center of the Illyrian tribe of the Daorsi, whose city of Daorson still fascinates visitors with its cyclopean masonry. The mild climate allows figs and pomegranates to thrive, while the scents of Mediterranean herbs fill the town streets. The town is known for its cultural events and preserved architecture, making it a true oasis for lovers of archaeology, culture, and the silence of the Herzegovinian karst.
