Srebrenik fortress, dating back to 1333, is located about 5 km away from town Srebrenik.
The fortress was built on a high, steep and almost inaccessible rock above the valley of the Tinja River. The rock rises from the surrounding terrain at a height of about 50 to 70 m. A deep excavation was made below the most accessible part of the fort, so that access is only possible through the bridge.
The entire fortress was built on an area of about 60 x 30 meters. The walls of the fortress are about 1.5 m thick, while all the other walls inside the walls are thinner. The whole fortress was built in one go and that time contain four towers, a steeple, a cistern and an apartment building with a basement.
The fortress was occupied by the ruler of Bosnia Stephen II Kotromanic until his death in 1353. After that the fortress got inherited by a distant relative of Stephen II, whose name was Danis. As he died in 1378, the fortress was abandoned ever since.
Srebrenik fortress is a National Monument of Bosnia & Herzegovina.
