"Sleepy little town" Pozarevac by DeYo


Pozarevac Travel Guide: 31 reviews and 65 photos

Pozarevac is the sleepy little town located in the plains of Stig. Although this is mostly agricultural area Pozarevac is know for one of the biggest candy factories in the Europe called “Bambi”, and it’s best known cookie called “Bambi plazma”.
Famous painter Milena Pavlovic-Barili was born in Pozarevac and in our town is located museum dedicated to this extraordinary woman.
Pozarevac had some great moments in its history, but most important is signing of the peace agreement between Turkey and Austria in 21.07.1718. this agreement is called “Pozarevac peace agreement”. Also, on a nearby hill Cacalica a battle occurred in 1944 between Russian army and German army, this hill is today a monument-park.
Very close to Pozarevac (some 3 km) is located “Ljubicevo”-stud. This is the oldest and perhaps the most important region of the organized upbrining of horses in Serbia. Through its history some of the best horses, with international success, were: Tina, Ljubicevac and Moby Dick. Every first week of September in Pozarevac and Ljubicevo is organized weekend-festival called “Lubicevo’s horse games” with standard horse races but with Pozarevac’s typical event called “Viseboj” which is competition in 5 events that includes shooting an arrow from a running horse, cutting apples (also from running horse) and stuff like that.
Finally, Slobodan Milosevic the former president of Yugoslavia was born in Pozarevac, and that fact had a great impact on this region. Some of this impact was good, but the most of it was negative, thanks to Milosevic and his son Marko some people from this region got very rich very fast. But, this is not an appropriate story for a VirtualTourist.
