Herceg Novi

Herceg Novi was named after Saint Stephen and later became known as Herceg Novi when Stjepan Vukčić Kosača added his title to the name.

The Ottomans ruled Herceg Novi for 200 years and built Kanli Tower on the upper edge of the city.

Herceg Novi is well known as a spa and health center, particularly for its healing sea mud called 'igaljsko blato'.

The Herceg Novi City Archive, which was temporarily relocated to Zadar during World War II, features modern equipment and a library open to the public.

Herceg Novi has approximately 200 sunny days a year, with an average annual temperature of 16.2 °C (61.2 °F).
