Kosovo's Essential Landmarks

Kosovo's architectural landscape spans from medieval Serbian Orthodox monasteries, such as the UNESCO-listed Visoki Dečani and Patriarchate of Peć, to Ottoman-era structures like the Sinan Pasha Mosque and the 18th-century Terzijski Bridge. In Pristina, modern history is represented by the typographic Newborn monument and the Cathedral of Blessed Mother Teresa. Prizren offers a view of the region's diverse heritage through its hilltop fortress and the historic site of the Albanian League.
