The village of Kraljeva Sutjeska, in the municipality of Kakanj, Bosnia and Herzegovina,[1] has historical significance and rich heritage. During the Middle Ages it used to be a capital of medieval Bosnian state, and a place where the main court of the royal Bosnian Kotromanić dynasty was situated. The town was called Trstivnica in official state charters of that time. It is situated at the foothills of Zvijezda mountain. A couple of kilometres above the Sutjeska, through the canyon of the Bukovica stream in the northeastern direction deep in the mountain, the historic fortress-city of Bobovac was situated on a high ridge, which was also a secluded royal seat of the Bosnian kings.[2][3] The village hosts a number of important historical sites:[2][3]
