Novo Brdo Municipality, Medieval fortress municipality in Pristina District, Kosovo.
The Novo Brdo region contains extensive silver, gold, and lead mines across a mountainous terrain, with Bostane serving as its administrative center.
During the 15th century, Novo Brdo functioned as a primary mining center in the Balkans, producing up to six tonnes of silver annually.
The municipality integrated Saxon miners, Albanian workers, and Ragusan merchants, forming a multicultural society with Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches.
The municipality lies 40 kilometers east of Pristina, with regular transport connections and accommodation options available for visitors exploring the medieval fortress.
The fortress features an Upper Town with eight towers and a Lower Town, surrounded by dry moats that demonstrate advanced medieval defensive architecture.
