Ivanica (Serbian Cyrillic: Иваница) is a small village in Bosnia and Herzegovina which is located just over the border from Gornji Brgat in Croatia.[1] It has an unobstructed view of the Adriatic sea. Due to its close location to Dubrovnik Ivanica gravitates to Dubrovnik and many of its inhabitants work or live in Dubrovnik.[2] Recently, the settlement has been experiencing rapid development and expansion due to construction of many new apartment projects.[3]
The village of Ivanica is located on a hill near Dubrovnik overlooking the Adriatic sea. It is located in the region of Herzegovina, 8 km north-east from Dubrovnik and 20 km south-west from Trebinje. It is a part of Ravno municipality which is located in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina.[4]
Before the Bosnian War (1992–1995) Ivanica was a part of Trebinje municipality, after the war the municipality was split and Ivanica became a part of the Ravno municipality. The village was damaged during the Bosnian War but later reconstructed in the 2000s.
