Conservation - archaeological research and restoration

The Gračanica-Lehowacz fortress, not far from the village of Baćin Dol and the settlement of Cernik in western Slavonia, is one of the many medieval forts in continental Croatia, the structure of which was destroyed during the Turkish wars of conquest in the first half of the 16th century, but also later in the wars of liberation against the Turks towards the end 17th century Gračanica-Lehowacz fortress was built on the property of the Desislavić noble family at the end of the 15th century or around 1500 in the form of a refuge, that is, a fortress that served as protection against the coming Turkish threat. In that period, the oval-shaped fort consisted of an entrance three-story tower and a perimeter wall with a bastion. A palas was located in the interior along the western perimeter wall. The conservation analysis of the architectural structure of the fort and the findings of preliminary archaeological research have contributed to some new knowledge and views on the architectural layering of the site. Inside the fort, the walls of older fortification complexes dating back to the 13th and 14th centuries were discovered. Of the complete fortification complex of the late medieval fort, the entrance tower, which lacks the third floor and roof, has been preserved to a greater extent, as well as the eastern oval wall and partially the back side of the perimeter wall. .
