Požarevac

The city of Požarevac spreads across 74 square kilometers between three rivers: the Danube, Great Morava, and Mlava, with an elevation of 94 meters.

The locality, first documented as Puporače in the 14th century, contained a Roman settlement named Margus and experienced rule under Eastern Roman, Slavic, and Ottoman powers.

Multiple educational institutions, including Požarevac Gymnasium and technical colleges, contribute to the intellectual development of the city's 51,000 residents.

The municipal center maintains efficient transport connections to Belgrade through regular bus services and well-maintained roads across the Braničevo District.

The Treaty of Požarevac, signed in 1718, marked a transformative period when the Habsburg Monarchy gained control over parts of Serbian territories from the Ottoman Empire.
