Cultural and Historical Heritage Stolac, BiH

1. The project “ Cultural and Historical Heritage Stolac, BiH “ is located in the area of Stolac Old town in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The long-standing axis of the building is in the direction Southwest - Northeast. The building “ Hammam Stolac “ served as a public bathroom and was a national heritage building, built in the late 16th or beginning of the 17th century. The water for the Hammam Stolac Old town was brought in a special water supply system from the river Bregava in Stolac. At a certain time, the building extended a residential apartment on one building side.
2. As part of the project was done preparation of the necessary documentation for the purpose of creating the three-dimensional (3D) building model for the cultural and historical heritage, technical and photographic documentation then the 3D model of: the town centre in Stolac (renovated mosque and shops, and some parts that are destroyed), “ the Hammam Stolac “ (destroyed) with building site surrounding in " the Bridge area " of Stolac centre, "family house of Mrs. Aisa Rizvanbegovic" (devastated).
3. In the year 2021, “ the place and remains of the historic building - Hammam in the Bridge area in Stolac “ were declared as national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The building site is therefore protected as national heritage.
4. The 3D building model of “ the Hammam Stolac “ was created for the purpose of an advanced smartphone application, free touristic application to promote the town of Stolac and its cultural and historical heritage. The building “ Hammam in Stolac ” doesn’t exist any longer, while still was possible to be virtually viewed offline and online on the aforementioned smartphone application. The application had many routes and views, and the building was possible to be viewed at the application functioning from 2014 to 2022. Would be useful again to establish the application which would contribute to the development of tourism in the town of Stolac and wider.
5. The free smartphone and tablet application enabled visitors of Stolac and those with the application to view: 3D building models, historic photographs and for interested to read descriptions about these buildings in the town of Stolac. The application contained more than 30 photographs, descriptions, specific walking routes and 3D building models.
