Hotel in Livno – Nature, Wild Horses and Culture

Crvenice is a natural attraction and part of the hydrogeological wealth in the Livno foothills. The karst river Bistrica also runs through the city from north to south, dividing Livno into two unequal parts. The landscape can also be explored on cycling routes in and around Livno: the routes pass through hilly landscapes along mountains, rivers, lakes and forests.

The old town of Livno, also known as Bistrički grad, is designated as a historic area. Its landmarks include Most na Dumanu, which was built at the end of the 17th or beginning of the 18th century and is considered a symbol of Livno’s architectural heritage. Veis-kula is the largest and best-preserved of Livno’s historic towers. Its interior diameter is 3.5 metres, while the walls are up to 3.8 metres thick.

Behind Livno’s old town, the Lala-pašina Mosque was built on Begluk in 1577/1578. In 2004, it was placed under state protection and declared a national monument. The complex includes a sundial by Hadži Jusuf Livnjak and a courtyard with rare surviving nišans.

The Franjevački muzej i galerija Gorica Livno houses archaeological, ethnographic, antique weapons, religious, philatelic and art collections. These collections reflect the cultural and historical development from prehistoric times to the present day. A permanent memorial exhibition featuring paintings by Gabriel Jurkić is open to the public there; visitors can also tour the monastery church. The Franciscans opened the Gabriel Jurkić Memorial Gallery in 1995. The Gabriel Jurkić collection at FMGG-Livno currently comprises more than 200 works and 6,000 drawings.

A virtual tour of FMGG-Livno is available. It allows visitors to explore the church and museum exhibitions and view the exhibits in greater detail.
