Zlatibor Mountain Tour

The Ethno Village of Sirogojno is a one-of-a-kind open-air museum bearing witness to the way of life in the mountain villages at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century. Covering 5 hectares, it consists of around 50 objects that have been re-located from the surrounding Zlatibor villages. These chosen edifices illustrate the richness of architecture and the cultural development of the Zlatibor area, while at the same time giving insight into the social and industrial relations within a village community. The knowledge and craft with which the wood was processed are of a high level, making these architectural achievements of particular importance. The permanent exhibition of the museum consists of two Zlatibor crofts, always facing sunward, featuring habitats and economic buildings such as those that co-operative village families would have. There are also houses that have kept their original appearance but their use has changed, in that it was adapted to the needs imposed by tourism. In the museum tavern, visitors can sample, using authentic wooden cutlery, traditional Zlatibor dishes prepared in the old-fashioned way: kaymak, cheese, Serbian prosciutto, dark rye bread, buckwheat pie, and potatoes-under-the-pot.
