Summary/Abstract: he paper “Stećaks in the inner city center of Mostar with reference to preservation and protection” describes the medieval stećakstombstones which have been preserved in the inner city center. We discuss the only stećak located in the Mali Park and the destroyed stećaks at Carina. Next, we dicuss the stećaks that were moved from their authentic locations to the lapidary of the Museum of Herzegovina due to the danger in the area of the City of Mostar and the accumulation of the lake on the Trebišnjica river. he stećaks in the lapidary come from Tabhana near the Old Bridge, Bišće polje, Polog, Bileća and Potok. One part of the paper is related to preservation and protection – where causes of decay and disappearance are dicussed – along with ways of stopping and preventing the devastation of stećak.
