The Radimlja necropolis is located in Vidovo polje, three kilometres west of Stolac, on the Čapljina – Stolac road. It is an area characterized by Mediterranean climate. It is located in the area where the Radimlja River, a right tributary of the Bregava River, meanders. The monuments of this necropolis were lined up and oriented northwest-southeast. Limestone was used from the nearby quarry at Ošanićko hill, about 800 meters northeast of the necropolis, where an unfinished stećak has been standing to this day. The necropolis with stećci Radimlja is part of the historical area of the town of Stolac, characterized by the presence of material remains of several historical layers. There are significant findings from prehistoric times (the site of the cave Badanj in Borojevići), the Illyrian-Roman period (Hellenistic town of Daorson), the Middle Ages (old town of Vršnik, Vidoški grad, church of st. Petar and Pavle in Ošanići), the Ottoman period (old bazaar, mosques – Čaršijska džamija, Podgradska džamija), the Austro-Hungarian period and modern times. The Historical area – the Radimlja stećci necropolis near Stolac, was declared a national monument of Bosnia and Herzegovina by the Decision of the Commission to Preserve National Monuments.
