Visoko is a historical city in central Bosnia and Herzegovina, located about 50 kilometers north-west of the capital Sarajevo, on the banks of the Bosna River, at a strategic point in the Posavina Corridor. The city is famous for the remains of the medieval Bosnian kingdoms, in particular the ruins of the castle of Bosanski Grad, founded in the 12th century as the residence of the Bosnian kings, and the surviving walls, towers and other historical buildings, which bear witness to the complex history of the Balkan region. Visoko has also attracted international attention due to the local "pyramid" theory (proposed by amateur archaeologists, which suggests the existence of man-made mound structures), a topic that has brought some attention to the city despite the reservations of the mainstream academic community. Economically, Visoko is dominated by agriculture, light industry and tourism, and the surrounding natural beauty attracts tourists interested in exploring both history and nature.
