Culture and history

The Church of Our Lady of Ljeviš, in Prizren, is the endowment of King Milutin, along with the Archbishop Sava III. It was built in 1307.

Prizren is also distinguished by other churches, such as: the Church of Holy Salvation (est. 1348), the Church of St. Nicholas (est. 1332), the Church of Prince Marko (est. 1371), and Assembly Church of St. George from the second half of the 19th century.

In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, during Ottoman rule, mosques, hammams, and madrasas flowered throughout Prizren and its surroundings. The Mosque of Bajrakli Gazi Mehmed-Pasha is the earliest establishment of Islamic architecture in Prizren. It was built in 1561, and still safeguards books in Arabic and Ottoman Turkish to this day, including a Kuran from 1312.
