Zenica, Industrial city in Bosna river valley, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Zenica extends through a valley at 330 meters elevation, with the Bosna River flowing through its center and mountains rising on both sides.
The Romans established a settlement named Bistua Nova between the 2nd and 4th centuries, constructing temples, villas, and public baths in the area.
The city contains nine national monuments that reflect different periods of architecture, including the Old Bazaar and the medieval Vranduk fortress.
The University of Zenica provides higher education opportunities while the city maintains strong rail and road connections to Sarajevo, 70 kilometers south.
The ironworks factory, established in the late 19th century, transformed Zenica into the largest metallurgical center in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
