History
Atik Mosque in Vukovije Gornje was built at the end of 16th century.
Yugoslav Wars
On 2 May 1992 Kalesija was one of the first Bosnian towns to be caught in the initial Serbian offensive. On 11 May 1992, Kalesija and territory east of the river Bjeljevac except for the settlements of Zukići and Jajić were placed under occupation.
On 23 May 1992, Kalesija was retaken by Bosnian forces.
Consequences of the occupation included ethnic cleansing, population displacement and suffering, many people being taken to the camps, the destruction of Kalesija villages, destruction of religious buildings and industrial plants.[citation needed]
The Dayton Agreement appointed a new administrative arrangement of Bosnia and Herzegovina. 71 km2
(26.1%) of the territory of the municipality Kalesija was ceded to Republika Srpska, becoming the new municipality of Osmaci.
