Forteresse de Brvenik, Medieval fortress in Raska District, Serbia
The Brvenik Fortress stands on a strategic hilltop position overlooking the confluence of Brvenica and Ibar rivers in eastern Serbia.
First documented in 1230, the fortress changed ownership in 1363 when Prince Vojislav Vojinovic exchanged it with commander Musa for the Zvecan region.
The Saint Nicholas Church within the fortress complex contains preserved frescoes from the second half of the 14th century.
The fortress remains are accessible through the municipality of Raska, located approximately 10 kilometers southwest of the archaeological site.
The fortress walls, constructed with crushed stones bound by lime mortar, follow the natural terrain contours of the hillside.
