Culture in Prizren information


The culture of Prizren reflects a unique blend of various identities within Kosovo. Prizren is a community where different cultures and civilizations have come together, contributing to the city's cultural development over the centuries.

Prizren has been known since antiquity as having a unique place in the Balkans, with its diverse cultural components stemming from its civilizations and religions. Thanks to its favorable geographic setting, its wide selection of monuments, and its archaeological heritage, the city of Prizren rightfully has been called the "museum city", "museum under the open sky" or even the "Dubrovnik of the Balkans", and has been described as one of Kosovo's most beautiful cities.

There is an old proverb saying "Whoever drinks water from the fountain will have find it difficult to leave Prizren". Historians say "Every stone of Prizren is a history unto itself", while one of the local songs goes: "Prizren is the city of song and love".[1]
