Скачать или смотреть Smedovac, priča o zvoniku

When Prince Milan Obrenović of Serbia was 18 years old, in 1872, he donated a bell to the village of Smedovac. The small village in Eastern Serbia, five kilometers from the border with Bulgaria, had at that time a flourishing viticulture.
Today many people have left the village and the bell tower had fallen into disrepair over the years. When I first saw the bell tower in 2018, there was already a risk that the roof would collapse and the bell would fall.
When I saw the tower and the small bell for the first time, I knew: This has to be repaired. And we did it. The EU made the funds available and now the tower has been renovated again and the bell is now hanging safely where it has been since 1872. And hopefully it will hang there for many years to come.
