Donja Gradina is a border crossing over the Sava river, close to where the Una flows into it, on the M-14 road that continues on the Croatian side as state road D47 to Jasenovac. It lies in the Kozarska Dubica municipality, in Republika Srpska. The place carries heavy history: during the Second World War, Donja Gradina was a killing ground of the Jasenovac concentration camp complex, and today, on the Bosnian side of the river, it forms part of the Jasenovac Memorial Site — a quiet, solemn place many visitors tour alongside the museum on the Croatian side. As with the rest of the Bosnia and Herzegovina–Croatia border, this has been a full external Schengen border since Croatia joined the Schengen Area in January 2023, so documents go through full checks regardless of nationality. When traffic backs up, the nearby Kozarska Dubica crossing, upstream on the same river, offers a smaller alternative, though it is officially classified as the lesser of the two crossings and mostly absorbs overflow when this one is congested. The crossing is mainly used by residents of Kozarska Dubica, Jasenovac and nearby villages along the Una and Sava, as well as visitors to the memorial complex.
