Sažetak
In Bosnia and Herzegovina heritage is becoming a political category, and the destruction, reconstruction and contestation over heritage sites is a process involving the antagonistic relations between the three major ethno-religio-national groups in the country. With this in mind I want to consider the relationship existing between Bosnian Croat pilgrimages and the religious, cultural and historical heritage of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It seems that contemporary pilgrimage places of Bosnian Croats are becoming labelled and framed by different forms of heritage. I connect this process with the fact that all three constitutive natio-religious communities of Bosnia and Herzegovina are trying to legitimize their claim over B&H using material and tangible remnants of the medieval Bosnian kingdom - historical, cultural and religious heritage. In this lecture I will focus on three examples: (1) pilgrimage to St John`s church in the village of Podmilačje near Jajce, (2) military pilgrimage to medieval royal city of Bobovac, and (3) pilgrimage to the grave of Diva Grabovčeva near Rama.
