Fortress Vranovo brdo

Fort-Net

From the mountain rim above Dražin vrt (Draža’s garden), the Bay of Kotor was supervised by the fortress popularly called St. Andrew, and in Austro-Hungarian documents known as Vranovo Hill. Although quite ruined, it still has a heavy iron entrance door, one of the last preserved at the Austro-Hungarian fortifications in the Bay of Kotor. When you go through them, you become an explorer of an almost forgotten world from the end of the 19th century. The soldiers who used to stay here had the task of vigilantly monitoring the movements on the roads from the direction of Njeguši and on the Montenegrin border, keeping the cannons in the readiness state. Today, only two semicircular, empty artillery platforms remain as well as a cistern, still filled with water. The view of the Bay of Kotor from here is one of the most beautiful. Come and see for yourself!
