The Smailagich Tower is located in the Balagusha mahala in Livno and with its height and harmony of proportions, it is an important visual element in the neighbourhood. Like in many parts of South Eastern Europe Bosnia and Herzegovina, the feudal lords used to build fortified residential buildings – towers. Until the beginning of the 20th century only three towers survived in Livno: the Altagic Tower, the Firdus Tower and the Smailagich (Pirija) Tower. The first two were destroyed by the fire of 1911, and the only tower that survived was Smailagich. An interesting fact is that it was used for dwelling even after World War II. The tower is a three-storey building with a rectangular plan. Through a stone portal, one entered the ground floor of basement character since its northern side was dug into a solid rock. The rooms on the first floor served as living room in wintertime, heated with a fireplace in the southern wall. The rooms on the second floor served as bedrooms, while the third floor served as summer living room.
