Potpecka cave

User Review:

• The cave lies on the northern part of the 932m high Mount Dreznicka Gradina near Pozega, in a cliff which is more than 80m high. The entrance is shaped like a huge horseshoe (some say elephant). It is the largest cave entrance in Serbia.There have been found some engraved crosses covered with calcites. It takes a lot of time to form calcite crust, thus it is considered that Serbs had used Potpeća cave as a hideout during the Ottoman occupation. In support of the theory some human bones have been discovered also (a primitive graveyard (pit) they could not bring out, because of the Ottomans. Highly recommended!
