Kruševo, Mountain town in North Macedonia
The streets of Kruševo wind through stone buildings and Ottoman architecture at an elevation of 1350 meters above sea level in North Macedonia.
During the 1903 Ilinden Uprising, Kruševo declared independence from Ottoman rule and established a short-lived republic under the leadership of Nikola Karev.
The Makedonium monument, with its spherical design, stands at the highest point of Kruševo to commemorate the independence fighters of the early 20th century.
The winter season in Kruševo extends for 40 days with sufficient snow coverage, making it a destination for skiing and winter sports activities.
Kruševo maintains its position as the highest town in the Balkans, where traditional Macedonian houses feature characteristic blue window frames.
