Obod, Medieval fortress near Cetinje, Montenegro
The stone fortress stands on Obod hill, featuring defensive walls and towers overlooking the headwaters of River Crnojevića.
Ivan Crnojević relocated his capital from Žabljak to Obod in the late 15th century to protect against Turkish military advances.
The fortress complex housed the first printing house in Southeastern Europe, which produced Oktoih prvoglasnik in 1494.
Visitors can reach the fortress through access roads from Cetinje, with accommodation options available in the surrounding area.
The site contains remnants of Montenegro's first pharmacy and weapons workshop, established during the medieval period.
