Bor District, Administrative district in Eastern Serbia.
Bor District is an administrative region in the far eastern part of Serbia, bordering Romania. The area encompasses several municipalities, including Bor city, and spreads across a large territory with diverse geography.
The territory was known in ancient times under Roman rule as part of Moesia Inferior and was inhabited by the Triballi before conquest. Later, intensive mining activity shaped the region's economic development in the modern era.
The district population includes multiple ethnic groups such as Serbs, Vlachs, Romani, Romanians, Macedonians, and others, creating a diverse social structure.
The region is shaped by mining activities and hydroelectric facilities, which should be considered when planning a visit. Exploring the various municipalities requires personal transport, as infrastructure is concentrated around individual centers.
Archaeological excavations in Rogljevo uncovered a Roman burial site containing intricately crafted metal pieces from ancient times. These findings suggest the area served as an important trade point in antiquity.
