Kolibe Donje is a small village near Bosanski Brod, Bosnia and Herzegovina . The settlement suffered great damage during the war, where it was almost completely destroyed. Most of the houses are still in ruins, and stay as a reminder of great destruction that took place. Even now, more than 12 years later, only a few houses were rebuilt. Currently, a new building stands on the place where the old church stood. Patron Saint of Parish Kolibe is Michael (archangel), it is celebrated on September 29. This is a day of reunion among people who once lived in the small village. A majority of inhabitants were ethnic Croats.
