Old town of Visoki, Medieval castle ruins in Visoko, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The fortress stands at 213 meters above ground on Visočica hill and includes two lookout towers at its southwestern entrance.

The castle town emerged in the 14th century and served as a strategic center for issuing royal documents until its final charter in 1436.

The site represents medieval Bosnian architecture with walls measuring 2 meters thick and contains remnants of early residential structures in Podvisoki.

The fortress grounds span an area of 60 by 25 meters, requiring visitors to navigate steep trails to reach the archaeological remains.

Archaeological excavations in 2007 and 2008 revealed preserved wall sections that underwent subsequent restoration to maintain their structural integrity.
