Golubac Fortress stands on the south bank of the Danube, about 4 km downstream from the modern town of Golubac, Serbia, facing the Romanian village of Coronini across the river. Built from 1335 by the medieval Serbian state, it is split into three compounds and has ten towers, which were deliberately left unconnected to ease defence. It is noted for successfully repelling over 120 attacks, and it passed between Ottomans, Hungarians and others before being handed to Serbia in 1867.
