Vojno camp, Detention facility in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Vojni camp was a military complex near Mostar that functioned as a detention facility during the Bosnian War. The site contained multiple buildings that served as holding areas and interrogation facilities for civilian prisoners.
The camp was established in June 1993 by the Croatian Defence Council and held thousands of civilians until its closure in 1994. It emerged as part of the broader armed conflict following Yugoslavia's breakup.
The site stands in a region where the conflict left deep marks on communities that lived in close proximity before the war. Today, the place serves as a reminder of how quickly social bonds can fracture under political pressure.
The site is located within a city area and is accessible for visits from outside. Visitors should prepare in advance as there are limited facilities and the experience can be emotionally demanding.
The camp was internally organized into separate sections based on the categories of detainees held there. This systematic division reveals how conflicts shaped even the operational structure of such facilities.
