The earliest reference to the Kreshevo dates to 1381. The Medieval town of Kreshevo stood on the summit of a hill above the river Kreshevcica. The ruins of the old fort, where the kings of Bosnia occasionally held court, can still be seen. Below the fortress, at the site of the present-day town, developed the town of Podkreshevo. Up-to-day, Kreshevo, unlike the other Bosnian towns, preserved the characteristic features of the Mediaeval town. The western end of Kreshevo is the area with the largest number of survived old buildings. To the west of the town centre are the two hills where the fort and the Franciscan monastery, built in the 15th century, are situated.
