Fojnica Armorial (Serbo-Croatian: Fojnički grbovnik, Фојнички грбовник) is a prominent Illyrian armorial which contains South Slavic heraldic symbols, and expresses romantic nationalism and Illyrism rather than historical accuracy. The manuscript is named after the Franciscan monastery in Fojnica where it was kept.^[1]
