Very nice environment, I've been here in 2017 in the summer. And if you are visiting Bosnia-Herzegovina and you like culture, nature, great food and you want to relax then Jajce is for sure the place you have to visit. Great lakes, great waterwalls, great castles, very intresting history and the mixing and melting of the old medival cultures, best of the both worlds.

Jajce - with 32 national monuments we can say for sure „Museum under the open sky“. It is adorned with beautiful landscape and rich past whose traces we can see today in old core of the town. Rivers Pliva and Vrbas are united by a beautiful waterfall, the only one in the world that is located in the center of the town.

Catacomb of Jajce

Reviewed By LilliumBosniacum - Hadzici, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Carved inside the rock itself, this underground Church and crypt represents an interesting place to visit. Though smaller in dimensions, this gem for spiritual, historical and architectural appreciation will leave you with a trace of something truly eerie. Built in between XIV. and XV. century,as the final resting place of Hrvatinić Family (the Grand Duke died before it was completed, his wife remarried so there are no bodies in the crypt). At the bottom area, it contains a modified Cross which contains symbols of Sun and Moon - as symbols of Death cult, Afterlife and Eternal sleep. Severely vandalized through history, it still remains a one of a kind Church in these regions. At later dates it served as a refuge for people of Church, refugees and partisan fighters. The tour is quite quick as it is a small place, it is also dark and adequate lightning is a must. Also, in the summer days, this place is cooler than the outside, so a nice trip to catacombs may refresh your body, or spirit.
