The Pavlović family, also Radinović or Radenović, or Radinović-Pavlović, whose ancestors Jablanići got their name after their family estate at Jablan grad (Mezgraja, Ugljevik), was a medieval Bosnian family, which ruled parts of eastern and south to southeastern medieval Bosnia. The family had their seat at Borač-Pavlovac, above the Prača canyon, between Prača, Rogatica and Goražde in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Radin Jablanić was a local lord of the Krivaja valey and Prača region, and father of family's founder Pavle Radenović, who ruled a territory in the east and south to southeastern parts of the Bosnian Kingdom, from the late 14th century until his death in 1415.

Pavle Radinović plotted against then king of Bosnia, Ostoja, and his Grand Duke, Sandalj Hranić, which led to his assassination by Sandalj in Kraljeva Sutjeska in 1415, and burial in Vrhbosna.

Most prominent member of the family was Grand Duke of Bosnia, Radislav Pavlović, son of Pavle.

The family hailed and ruled from Borač-Pavlovac. It's actually two castles rather than one, built in space of several decades (two generations) and few kilometers apart in distance from each others. These are simply known as Old Borač and New Borač or Pavlovac.

The new castle of Borač is actually called Pavlovac, and is considered to be a new structure also known Novi (English: New), or Novi Grad (English: New Town). Problem exist in correct dating of its construction, but some medieval charters suggest 1392, or late 14th century, as time of its construction, during Radislav Pavlović at the family's helm.
