Pandurica, Medieval castle in Nikšić, Montenegro.
The stone fortress stands on a hill near the Zeta River, featuring defensive walls and strategic observation points overlooking the surrounding valleys.
Stracimir Balšić, Lord of Zeta principality, constructed the castle in 1367 to control mountain trails and the ford across the Zeta River.
The castle exemplifies Medieval military architecture of Montenegro through its stone construction methods and defensive positioning along historical trade routes.
Archaeological restoration works continue at the site, with guided tours available through local tourism offices in the Nikšić region.
The castle remains under the ownership of the Nikčevići family from the Pješivci tribe, maintaining a direct connection to its 15th-century inheritance.
