Banja Luka· Bosnia & HerzegovinaAbout this landmark
Nestled in the peace of the village of Malo Blaško, just a mile and a half from Slatina, the Old Log Church stands as a silent witness to survival and faith. Although 1745 is taken as the official date, eight stećci in its yard suggest much deeper roots.
This architectural gem, measuring just 28 square meters, hides an incredible harmony of altar, nave, and choir. Created during the era of Ottoman bans, the church, according to legend, had to be modest and blend into the forest that still surrounds it today. Today it is a favorite refuge for walkers and lovers of cultural heritage, who find extraordinary peace and true spirituality in its simplicity.
