About
Quick facts: The fortress stands on top of a hill and offers a panoramic view of the Ibar River and the surrounding countryside. Its walls are up to 3 meters thick, which ensured strength during medieval battles.
Highlights: The tower is approximately 15 meters high and contains the remains of a fresco of Saint George, which are rare in the Central European area. Visitors often admire the sunset over the valley, which in magical light highlights the stone walls.
Insider tips

- The best photo is from the east side of the tower at sunset.
- Avoid weekend afternoon hours due to tourist traffic.
- Bring water and a seasonal snack; there are not many shops in the area.
