Medieval Towns of Montenegro

Description: The project “Medieval Towns of Montenegro” represents a first big step towards including these localities, as a unique thematic whole, into the modern life of Montenegro. The citizens have become acquainted with this part of their heritage, and tourists with an interesting offer of the Montenegrin tourism. n Montenegro today there are over 50 towns and fortifications from the medieval period, but only a smaller number of them (20%) is accessible and known to people and tourists. Over 40 sites are gradually descending or have already descended into oblivion.

The main objectives of the project are to present and promote the MEDIEVAL TOWNS OF MONTENEGRO as an insufficiently known cultural-historical segment of the Montenegrin past and culture, and to recognize these localities as the unique and attractive cultural itineraries that could attract a great number of tourists.

The main material used in the project is the book by professor architect Pavle Mijović and professor Mirko Kovačević “Medieval Towns and Fortifications in Montenegro”, published in 1975.
