OwnerMonuments of Kosovo

The Greater and Lesser Forts in Vučak, located in Vučak, Glogovac, Kosovo, constitute an official monument of Kosovo, categorized as “archaeological” under the number 0301-803/88.[1]

History

In Vučak at the foot of Mount Kasmaç, about 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) southwest of Glogovac, the ruins along the hillsides occupy a commanding position. Archaeological evidence supports a history of settlement from prehistory to the Middle Ages, but the two prominent forts remaining show characteristics of the Late Antiquity period.[2]
