GROTTE-CATHÉDRALE DE BUKOVICA

Located under the windmills of the Grabovica plateau, the entrance to this cave (Pećina-Katedrala u Bukovici) was transformed into a Catholic church dedicated to St. Ignatius in the 17th century. During the Fourth Austro-Turkish War (1663-1664), the Ottomans banned Catholic gatherings in the area, forcing the faithful to meet in improvised places of worship. Since 1997, a mass is organized every year on the Sunday before the Assumption, around August 10.
