"Old fort of Stolac stands on an elevation above the present-day centre of Stolac, and is a defensive structure, one of the largest forts in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The complex system of stone walls and towers suggests that it was built in several stages, which are difficult to differentiate. In the prehistoric period the north-western part of the fortress, towards the settlement outside the walls, was probably the area that was inhabited. On the site of present-day Stolac lay the antique-era municipium of Dilentum, with finds dating from the 1st to 2nd centuries CE, and fortifications dating from the late antique era. The earliest reference to Vidoški fort is in a charter dated 1444, followed by a series of charters up to 1454, as the possession of Stjepan Vukčić Kosača. Stolac became part of the Ottoman sultanate following the Ottoman conquest in 1465. After the 1699 Treaty of Karlowitz the fort was repaired and extended, with a garrison commanded by a dizdar. The Stolac captaincy was established in about 1706. In 1878 Austro-Hungarian rule was established. The military authorities carried out thorough repairs to the old fort in 1883, and built a modern fortress in 1888, above the one that had been in existence during the Ottoman period." - http://whc.unesco.org/en/tentativelists/5282/
