Dervish House, Blagaj - Bosnia and Herzegovina
Built at the site of an earlier Bogomil sanctuary (Bosnia and Herzegovina), it is a place of which history has no precise and stored data.
Archeological excavations have found and confirmed that this location holds the remains of a Late Antique structure.
During the Middle Ages, even before the arrival of the Ottomans, it was a place of utter cultural and religious importance (1. VI 1454.). The first written track of the Tekke was made by Evlija Celebija in 1664. in his travelogues, at time when the Tekke was already well-known throughout the Ottoman empire and within the scientific community.
