    (Translated by Google) The most beautiful view in Serbia. How to get there? Here's how to get to Mine after Ljig. As soon as you enter the village, the first street left before going downhill to the village of Varnice It is called Kacarska and it is about 7 km from the mine to the village of Varnice and number 70. There is a small parking for one car :) and the path leading to the island has a sign board park island.I recommend to everyone OSTROVIC but be careful if it rained before and if guide young children like me Always be out of them because it is very steep but worth every step of the way. Otherwise at the top of the islet are the remains of an old observation post which was also the border between Milutun and Dragutin's empire. ! (Original) Najlepsi pogled u Srbiji.Kako Stici ? Evo kako Skrenes za mesto Rudnik posle Ljiga. Cim udjes u Naselje prva ulica levo pre nizbrdice za Selo Varnice.Ulica se Zove Kacarska i ima oko 7 km od Rudnika do Sela Varnice.Tu kad vidite Tablu varnice i broj 70.Tu je mali parking za jedan auto :) i staza koja vodi do ostrovice ,ima i tabla park ostrovica.Preporucujem svima OSTROVICU ali bUdite oprezni ako je pre toga pala kisa i ako vodite malu decu kao Ja uvek budite iz njih jer je jako strmo.,ali vredi svakog koraka. Inace na vrhu ostrovice su ostaci stare osmatracnice koja je ujedno bila granica izmedju Milutunovog i Dragutinovog carstva. !

Proclamation for the NKD: Decision of the Institute for the Protection and Scientific Study of Cultural Monuments NRS number 1060/48 of 29.06.1948. years. Category: Immovable cultural propertyType: Cultural monumentPeriod of origin / datingMiddle AgesDescription of immovable cultural property: The remains of the medieval city are located on a dominant, rocky hill that represents the remains of a paleovolcanic cone. Due to its exceptional natural values, Ostrovica was declared a natural monument in 2009. The fortification was built with the aim of protecting the work of silver mines and trade routes. Ostrovica was first mentioned in 1323/24, during the conflict between King Stefan of Decani and the son of King Dragutin Vladislav, who managed to keep the mining area in his hands for several years. The fortification was the center of the military administration of the mining area, which was confirmed by the administrative reform of despot Stefan. The city first fell under Turkish rule in 1438, and was finally occupied in 1458, after which, for a time, they held a crew in the city. The base of the city is irregular, adapted to the shape of the terrain. The fortification is divided into two plateaus, which are connected by a massive defensive wall. On the accessible southwestern slopes, below the fortified part of the city, suburbs developed. Remains of a single-nave church were discovered at the Metaljka site in the lower suburbs, next to which there is a necropolis with monuments made of roughly hewn stone slabs, dating to the 19th-20th century. The site was probed in the early 1980s as part of a project by the Archaeological Institute.

Категорија:Непокретно културно доброВрста:Споменик културеПериод настанка / датовањеСредњи векОпис непокретног културног добра: Остаци средњовековног града смештени су на доминантном, каменитом вису који представља остатке палеовулканске купе. Због изузетних природних вредности, Островица је проглашена спомеником природе 2009. Утврђење је подигнуто са циљем да штити рад рудника сребра и трговачке путеве. Островица се први пут помиње 1323/24, током сукоба краља Стефана Дечанског и сина краља Драгутина Владислава, који је успео да неколико година држи руднички крај у својим рукама. Утврђење је било средиште војне управе рудничке области, што је и потврђено управном реформом деспота Стефана. Град је први пут пао под турску управу 1438, а коначно су га заузели 1458, након чега, једно време, држе посаду у граду. Основа града је неправилна, прилагођена облику терена. Утврђење је подељено на два платоа, која су повезана масивним одбрамбеним зидом. На приступачним југозападним падинама, испод утврђеног дела града, развијало се подграђе. На локалитету Метаљка у доњем подграђу откривени су остаци једнобродне цркве, уз коју се налази некропола са споменицима од грубо тесаних камених плоча, датована у период ХIХ-ХX век. Локалитет је сондажно истраживан почетком осамдесетих година XX века у оквиру пројекта Археолошког института.

    Popeti se na Ostrvicu je izuzetno iskustvo i za planinare i rekreativce. Uspon je kratak ali vrli strm, na najrizičnijim mestima obezbeđen sajlom. Preporuka je da do nje dođete kroz "Draganovo sokače", Taj put je lokalni duhoviti meštanin Dragan ukrasio svojim instalacijama punim dobrog humora.

    (Translated by Google) The island is one of the most beautiful peaks of Mount Rudnik. It is 756m high. Unlike the other pitiful peaks of the Ostrvica Mine, it is rocky and of volcanic origin. At the top of the Island, once used to be a medieval fortification, and only the foundations of the tower remained. Today, Ostrvica is an attractive location for mountaineers and adventurers, as it is one of the first ferries in Serbia. The trail begins in the village of Varnica, which is at its base. (Original) Ostrvica je jedan od najlepših vrhova planine Rudnik. Visoka je 756m. Za razliku od ostalih pitomih vrhova Rudnika Ostrvica je stenovita i je vulkanskog porekla. Na vrhu Ostrvice se nekada nalazilo srednjevekovno utvrdjenje a ostali samo temelji kule. Danas je Ostrvica atraktivna lokacija za planinare i avanturiste jer do njenog vrha vodi jedna od prvih via ferrata u Srbiji. Staza počinje u selu Varnice koje je u njrnom podnožju.

    Ostrvica or Ostrovica was a small fortified town built on one of the peaks of Rudnik mountain, 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) northwest of the town of Rudnik. After 1323/1324, when it was recorded for the first time, it belonged to the Kingdom of Serbia, Serbian Empire, Moravian Serbia, Serbian Despotate and Ottoman Empire. In 1451 the Ottomans razed it to the ground. Ostrvica was the main castle in the Rudnik area. It is assumed that its location protected the mines of Rudnik from the north, while another castle (of Pavle Orlović) provided protection from the south. The two castles maintained visual communication by signals. During the 14th and 15th centuries the people of the region and merchants from Dubrovnik used Ostrovica castle as a haven during wars, first in 1323–1324 during the war between Stefan Dečanski and Stephen Vladislav. In 1398 Nikola Zojić , a governor of Ostrovica, retreated to Ostrvica after the failure of his attempt to overthrow Stefan Lazarević and to establish direct vassalage to the Ottoman Empire. Zojić took monastic vows to avoid the death penalty. In 1414 voivode Mazarek is mentioned as a governor of Ostrvica and Rudnik. Ostrvica was captured by the Ottomans several times, first in 1431 and again in 1438. The Serbian despot recaptured it in 1443 during the Crusade of Varna, but the Ottomans captured it again in 1444, only to be restored to Serbia later in the year. Branković and Eirene used Ostrovica as their summer retreat, and had a mint in the castle. When the Ottomans captured Ostrvica in 1451 they razed it to the ground. This was against the order of Murad II. Evliya Çelebi described Ostrovica as the "town of Rudnik". He explained that it was founded by the Serbian King Miloš, captured by Ottomans, recaptured by Christians to be captured again by the Ottomans on 19 May 1521.

    Penjanje do vrha je zahtevno,ali je pogled prelep, posebno u ranu jesen (zbog boja krošnje listopadnog drveća) i pri lepom vremenu. Birati dane kada je suvo vreme, jer se lakše savladava uspon (ili birati obuću koja ne kliza).

    (Translated by Google) Ostrvica is an elevation within the Rudnik massif that dominates the villages of Varnice, Zagradje, Dragolj and Trudelj in the municipality of Gornji Milanovac. The altitude of the peak is 758 meters. By origin, Ostrvica represents the remnant of a destroyed volcanic cone. Due to its position and shape, Ostrvica was important in the Middle Ages because it housed a military fortification, whose remains can still be seen at the very top. Legend has it that the fortification was built by Damned Jerina, who died in nearby Rudnik. At the end of May 2009, the island was declared a natural monument. (Original) Острвица је узвишење у оквиру Рудничког масива које доминира селима Варнице, Заграђе, Драгољ и Трудељ у општини Горњи Милановац. Надморска висина врха је 758 метара. По пореклу, Острвица представља остатак разорене вулканске купе. Због свог положаја и облика, Острвица је у средњем веку била значајна јер се на њој налазило војно утврђење, чији се остаци и данас могу видети на самом врху. Легенда каже да је утврђење подигла Проклета Јерина, која је умрла у оближњем Руднику. Острвица је крајем маја 2009. проглашена за споменик природе.

    (Translated by Google) To me the most beautiful peak in Sumadija! The ascent leads partly through the forest, and then it takes a little more attention on the rise along the volcanic rock. Part of the rise is covered by cable for higher security. Perhaps this part is not for everyone, but it is worth endeavoring to take a little courage for a very nice view from the top to the environment and the mountains surrounding the Isle of Man. (Original) Po meni najlepši vrh u Šumadiji! Uspon vodi delom kroz šumu, a zatim je potrebno malo više pažnje na usponu preko vulkanskih stena. Deo uspona pokriven je i sajlama zbog veće sigurnosti. Možda ovaj deo nije za svakoga, ali vredi potruditi se i skupiti malo hrabrosti za veoma lep pogled sa vrha na okolinu i planine koje okružuju Ostrvicu.
