Bač Fortress, Medieval fortress in Bač, Serbia
The fortress features eight original towers constructed in Gothic style, with five towers remaining as part of the current structure on the Mostonga River banks.
King Charles Robert I of Hungary established the fortress between 1338 and 1342 to strengthen defenses against potential Ottoman Empire invasions.
The fortress stands as the central element of the Cultural Landscape of Bač, which represents multiple architectural influences from Romanesque to Islamic styles.
Visitors can access the 20-meter-high keep tower and explore the exhibition center that presents artifacts and information about the fortress history.
The fortress originated on an island in the Mostonga River, requiring a drawbridge for access until geographical changes placed it on dry land.
