Lesendro, Island fortress in Lake Skadar, Montenegro.
The stone fortress stands on a former island, now connected to the mainland by a railway causeway across Lake Skadar's waters.
Prince Peter II Petrovic Njegoš built the initial fortifications in 1832 to protect regional trade routes and control the surrounding waters.
The fortress represents a convergence point of Montenegrin military architecture and reflects the regional defensive structures of the 19th century.
Visitors can reach the fortress by car or train, with a parking area located 400 meters from the entrance to the historical site.
The railway line from Belgrade to Bar passes directly through the fortress grounds, integrating modern transportation with historical architecture.
