Prijedor is a city in the northwestern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), on the banks of the River Srpska, a tributary of the Sava River, and part of the entity of Republika Srpska. The city has a long history dating back to the Middle Ages and was an important settlement under the Ottoman and Austro-Hungarian empires. Prijedor is known for its multicultural heritage, blending Serbian, Croatian and Bosnian traditions.
Located at the foot of the Kozara Mountains in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Prijedor has a mild climate, rich in natural resources, and a traditional economy based on mining, forestry, and agriculture, with a gradual development of small-scale industry and tourism in recent years. The city is surrounded by the Kozara National Park, which offers hiking and ecotourism opportunities.
Despite the severe destruction suffered during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 1990s, Prijedor is trying to rebuild, restoring historical buildings and promoting community reconciliation. The city boasts museums and religious sites, such as the Old Orthodox Church, reflecting its complex past. The population of about 90,000, predominantly Serbian, is one of the cultural and educational centers of the region.
