This fortress, located just above the Church of St. Nicholas, offers a splendid view of the mountain.
The remains of the fortress overlooking the town, just above St. Nicholas Church, built by Alexei Slav in the 13th century, are quite difficult to access. In some places, the wall is still 10 m high. Its romantic silhouette can be admired from the opposite heights of the village. Alexei Slav was a Melnik nobleman of the Asen dynasty who became governor of the Rhodopes and played a political role in the Second Bulgarian Empire.
