Doboj Castle

The city of Doboj survived the trauma and devastation of the Bosnian War, yet even today the city is divided along ethnic lines and borders. But, while there may be many examples of national and ethnic conflict, one thing that unites people of all backgrounds in the city and surrounding regions is Doboj Castle. Suffering from decades of neglect, and badly damaged during the Bosnian War, Doboj Rotor set about its restoration. By reconstructing this cultural and historic monument, Doboj Rotor have not simply provided a significant tourist attraction, they have taken a step towards reducing the likelihood of future conflict by initiating a project that involved local people of all backgrounds on a monument for all Bosnians in the region, reminding people that despite their differences they still have a shared heritage worth saving.
