Radimlja Necropolis

Radimlja

A medieval necropolis of stećak stone tombs outside Stolac, with carvings of knights and deer hunts. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Radimlja lies about 3 km west of Stolac, beside the road. It preserves more than 130 stećak tombstones from the 15th and 16th centuries, making it the most important site of its kind in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Many headstones are carved with raised-hand figures, knights, deer hunts, dancers and vine motifs. In 2016 the site was inscribed on the World Heritage List as part of the transnational serial property Stećci: Medieval Tombstones. Entry costs a few convertible marks. Stolac itself has an old castle, a mosque and riverside water mills, so you can visit both. It is about 40 km from Mostar.
