This card from Croatia was one of the 4 much desired cards from UNESCO missing sites that I mentioned in the previous post and now I also have all the UNESCO sites from Croatia.
The card was sent by Nikola.
The site of St. Barbara is located in the village of Dubravka, in the northeast part of the Konavle region, where Croatia shares borders with Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
In the area of Dubrovnik-Neretva County, there are 115 sites with stećci, out of which 24 are found in Konavle. The most famous among them is the site of St. Barbara in Dubravka, which was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2016, together with 27 other sites in Croatia, Bosnia, and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Montenegro.

Apart from the graveyard with stećci, the site includes the church of sv. Barbara built in 1889 at the site of an older church.
The necropolis has 104 stećak tombstones. Two types of stećci dominate: chests and slabs. Ornaments include motifs of stylized vines, rosettes and crosses, bow and arrow, arm and hand. No inscriptions were recorded.
The site has been developing almost continually since prehistoric times. It is a complex archaeological site with several development stages. - in: https://www.stecciwh.org
