In recent years there has been some debate over whether Livno is part of the historical region of Bosnia, or of Herzegovina. Whatever the case, the city is culturally on the crossroads between Dalmatia, Bosnia, and Herzegovina. Recently, however, local courts have ruled that using Herzeg or Herzegovina to describe Canton 10 is unconstitutional and disallowed it on the grounds that no part of the Canton including Livno is a part of Herzegovina. One of the city's landmark is a monument to Croatian King Tomislav, who was crowned at the nearby fields of Duvno.
Livno is also known for its cheese, Livanjski sir or Livno cheese, which was first made during the Austro - Hungarian period
