Prilepac, Medieval castle in Novo Brdo, Kosovo.
The stone fortress contains defensive walls and towers positioned on a hilltop overlooking the surrounding valleys near Gjilan municipality.
Built during the medieval period, Prilepac gained recognition as the birthplace of Prince Lazar, who ruled Serbia from 1373 to 1389.
The fortress includes remnants of an old church within its grounds, representing the architectural and religious elements of medieval Serbian construction.
The fortress remains stand near the mountainous road leading to Novo Brdo, approximately 7 kilometers from the town of Gjilan.
During construction of a nearby dam, workers discovered ancient walls, while local residents frequently unearth historical artifacts like bottles and swords.
