The first mention of the town of Kladanj dates back to 12 century, precisely to 1138.
First record of Kladanj in Turkish sources is from 1469, referring to the maket place Cetvrtkoviste where on Thursdays big fairs were held. In the period of Ottoman rule, Kladanj was mentioned in 1557, as the settlement (kasaba) within the Sarajevo kadiluk (territorial unit) that would further on become kadiluk itself with Olovo as its part [1].
