Ostrožac Castle
and Herzegovina in the Una-Sana Canton just outside
the town of Cazin, in the village of Ostrožac. The Ostrožac, Bosnia and Herzegovina

family. In 1592 it was captured by the Ottoman Turks
and established as an Ottoman province of Bosnia. The

Bihać Lothar Von Berks as a birthday present for his
wife, member of the Habsburg family.

Ownership of the castle is still disputed, but citizens of


Cazin and Ostrožac are permitted to use the castle
grounds for local concerts and entertainment. The
castle is slowly being repaired.
