Krushuna ( Bulgarian: Крушуна [kroˈʃunɐ]) is a village in Letnitsa Municipality, Lovech Province, northern Bulgaria. [1]

The remains of ancient Roman forts "Kaleto" and "Daran-baran" are located about 500 m south of Krushuna. [2] They probably date from the 2nd century BC and were strategic defenses against tribes from the north; Goths, Carpi, Sarmatians, Vandals and Slavs.
