Ram Fortress, often described as the most picturesque and powerful medieval fortress on the Danube. It was built in 1483 by order of Sultan Bayezid II – grandfather of Suleiman the Magnificent. According to the legend from this period, Sultan Bayezid II, visiting his soldiers, stopped to rest on a hill from which there was a beautiful view of the Danube and the opposite, Hungarian side. Ram Fortress has five towers connected by mighty ramparts, with 36 cannon openings, which speaks of its great power. For the sake of comparison, Kalemegdan Fortress in Belgrade has only 22 slots. They are arranged on the walls of towers and ramparts to cover the entire circle around the fortress.

No less impressive than the history and military power of this fortress are the romantic sunsets, which “National Geography” declared to be one of the most beautiful in Europe.

We will proceed our adventure towards Golubac Fortress, a defensive complex used to defend many kingdoms through centuries. Golubac is the perfect fairy-tale castle, wonderfully set off by its location in the rugged landscape at the head of Đerdap Gorge. There are nine towers in all, each between 20 and 25m high, and combined with the fortress’s exciting position leaning over the Danube. They make Golubac undoubtedly one of the most beautiful castles along the 2,850km Danube odyssey from source to the Black Sea.

Smederevo Fortress, built in the 15th century covers ​​approximately 11 hectares, has the shape of an irregular triangle, and consists of two parts – the Big and the Small Town. First, Small Town was built, where the ruler’s residence, a building for family, escort, guard, and a library and a mint were located. The construction of the Small Town lasted only two years! The most representative part of the Small Town was the Great Reception Hall – the ” Magna Audientia” Hall, decorated with three Gothic and one Romanesque “biforas” – double windows carved in stone. After the Small Town construction, the Big Town of the Smederevo Fortress was built around 1439. At that time, another 19 towers with ramparts were added, and a trench was dug on the land side, connecting rivers Danube and Jezava. In that way, the fortress was surrounded by water and classified as a water type of fortification.
