\u010cortanovci, a famous picnic area within the Fru\u0161ka Gora National Park, is located on the banks of the Danube. In addition to natural treasures \u200b\u200band wonders, it is a space rich in cultural and historical monuments: the remains of Neolithic settlements, the remains of a Roman fortress, the Holy Spring Savinac, where St. Sava stayed on his trip to the Kovilj Monastery and Villa Stankovic – the villa of the royal governor Radenko Stankovi\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The name of this village came from the fish \u2018\u010dortan\u2019<\/em>. That is what the Slavs call carp fish of less than half a kilogram. And since the \u010cortanovci were near the Danube, the locals mostly fished and traded in fish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This picturesque village boasts one of the most beautiful beaches on this part of the Danube, attractive sandbanks and islands, the natural ambience of the Forest of Mihaljevac (Mihaljeva\u010dka \u0161uma<\/em>), and is recommended for lovers of sports and recreation – active holidays in nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Deep in the forest lie the walls of a Roman fortress – Castra Herculis. The Romans also left us grape vines, brought during the reign of Emperor Aurelius Probus, who was born in this area, and ever since then \u010cortanovci and the whole of Srem have been known for their quality grapes and wines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the 13th <\/sup>century, St. Sava also visited these areas and appointed Archbishop Arsenije II, who was born near \u010cortanovci, as the bishop of the Serbian Orthodox Church. It is interesting that Serbian and later Srem King Dragutin Nemanji\u0107, who founded the monastery of Remeta, lived in the area of \u200b\u200b\u010cortanovci.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u010cortanovci \u010cortanovci, a famous picnic area within the Fru\u0161ka Gora National Park, is located on the banks of the Danube.
