Hrustovačka pećina, Prehistoric cave in Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The limestone cave extends horizontally through the karst landscape, leading visitors to a small underground lake at its terminus point.

Archaeological excavations in the early 20th century revealed evidence of human habitation during the Copper Age, including large hearths and ceramic artifacts.

The site contains numerous findings from the Vučedol culture period, including decorated vases and bi-conical bowls that represent regional prehistoric craftsmanship.

The cave entrance remains open without restrictions or entrance fees, requiring visitors to bring their own lighting equipment and wear appropriate footwear.

Local folklore mentions two farmers during World War I who entered the cave and emerged near Jajce, suggesting an undiscovered passage spanning 55 kilometers.
