Stop 3

The Old Bridge was recently rebuilt and many of the edifices in the Old Town have been restored or rebuilt with the contribution of an international scientific committee established by UNESCO.

Medjugorje gained worldwide recognition in 1981 when six young people claimed to have had apparitions of the Virgin Mary. The apparitions have continued to this day, and the town has become a pilgrimage site for Catholics who seek spiritual renewal and healing. The town is known for its rolling hills and scenic countryside, which provide a beautiful backdrop. The main attraction of Medjugorje is Apparition Hill, where the Virgin Mary first appeared to the young people in 1981. The town is also home to the Church of St. James, a beautiful and sacred place where pilgrims can attend mass and participate in other spiritual activities.
