Mejdan - Obilićevo, Banja Luka — Area Guide & Where to Stay

What are the main landmarks in Mejdan - Obilićevo?

The museum cluster is the district's calling card: the Museum of Republika Srpska, the Museum of Modern Art of Republika Srpska, and the Republika Srpska Puppet Museum are all recorded here. Banja Luka's churches take the remainder. The Cathedral of Christ the Saviour and the Cathedral of Saint Bonaventure anchor two of them, with the Church of the Visitation in Banja Luka nearby.

A statue of Petar Kočić stands among them, and Бања Диреклија is listed on the same roll.

What is the history of Mejdan - Obilićevo?

Obilićevo's beginnings went unwritten. What the district has instead is a stock of buildings that carry its past: the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, the Cathedral of Saint Bonaventure, and the Holy Trinity church all stand within Banja Luka's Obilićevo. Two more church names belong to the same quarter, Rebrovačka crkva and Crkva Hrista Carja.

The written record for the district is thin, so its churches and museums stand in for the chronology that the sources do not supply.
