Skopje – Skopje Fortress (Former Entrance)

This fortress is complex and there’s limited information about its history either at the site or online, but it’s a large and intriguing location. This is a former entrance way that looks like it has been out of commission for some time, but even relatively recently it was in use. It was the main entrance to the fortress before boulders were placed across it and entrance was forbidden to the public for several years. There’s a lot of controversy about this site which I’ll witter on about in future posts, but at least now there is some access possible.

The other side of the gate and hopefully in the future this can be opened up again. There’s currently one way into the fortress, which is through an odd looking arrangement at one side of the fortress which all looks a bit abandoned.
