Golubac Fortress: Castle of the Danube



Until modern times, the Golubac Fortress was itself a town with its inhabitants living together inside the walls. Although for many years people thought that the history of Golubac started in medieval times, further excavations showed that it was much earlier than that. Historians believe that the Romans once settled in the town which later became a Bulgarian and then a Byzantine settlement. The most interesting aspect of the Golubac Fortress is that it has one of the most complex ownership lists in medieval history. Many nations, states, princedoms, kingdoms, and two different empires once held the castle under their control at certain times in history. Golubac saw invasions, conquests, conflicts, and wars and received damage in the process as well. However, thanks to renovations in the 21st century, it is now a museum and open to the public.
