ARILJE
I am Arilje, a small town in western Serbia.
I cover an area of 349 km2 at an altitude of 330-1382 m.
The geographical coordinates are 43 45' 07" - 20 05' 26"
I am located among the river basins of Moravica, Veliki and Mali
Rzav.
Always on the right road.
Close to large urban areas and attractive destinations.

My best known structure is the church of St. Ahilije from the 13th
century which bears testimony that I am a town with a long
history. I am old but young at heart and full of life, especially in the
summer period when thousands of people liven up the beaches
of my river Rzav.
I have 20,000 hard working entrepreneur citizens. We are
renowned for growing raspberries so I am called the
Red Gold Capital. Almost every household in Arilje grows
raspberries. The 5,000 “small factories under open sky” produce
over 20 million kilograms of raspberry annually. Our raspberries
are not only delicious, but have healing characteristics as well.
They contain plenty antioxidants, and according to doctors, a
daily portion of 130 grams of raspberry considerably reduces
cancer risks.
My name is associated with the best quality textile.
If you ask where our cotton plantations are located, we will say
there aren't any but there are numerous small and large
workshops with products bearing the brand „The Arilje textile”.

feast day
(Ariljevdan), one of the
favorite town events,
gathering spiritual and political
leaders and people in the
churchyard.
ARILJE
There are seven churches on the territory of Arilje and three of
them are over 7 centuries old.
My spiritual lighthouse is the church of St. Ahilije, founded by
king Dragutin in the 13th century. It was constructed in the Raška
style. It is said that a Byzantine temple once occupied this space
when Saint Sava won independence for our church, with one of
the 12 episcopates located at a plateau above the confluence of
the Rzav into the Moravica. At that time, my name was Moravice.
Later, in honor of St. Achillius, the bishop from Larissa, whose
relics had been brought here by the people of Thessaly, my name
changed into Arilje.
The main street and secondary school are named St. Ahilije as
well.
The church of St. Ahilije has been designated as a monument of
exceptional value.
FRESCOS
The church was fresco painted in 1296 and this decoration
occupies the attention of many people.
If you wish to find out more about our church ant its fresco
painting, please read the short novel “Ahilije” and the novel
“Brajan”, by the well known Serbian writer Dobrilo Nenadić, also
from Arilje.

THE KLISURA MONASTERY
The Klisura (gorge) Monastery is located 13 km from Arilje. It was
built in the 13th century modeled as the St. Ahilije church, in the
Raška style. According to legend, one good man, a companion of
St. Sava was in charge of building it, so its original name was
Dobrače (good man) just like the village it is built in.
It was demolished and burned several times. The Turks burned it
in 1688. It was reconstructed, but not for long. The Austrians
demolished it in 1915 as retribution against the priest Veljko
Tankosić, the parishioner of this monastery, who was the
organizer of the uprising against the occupier.
Today, the Klisura Monastery is a women's monastery.
Interesting facts:
The monastery was named after the geographical locality, which is
the gorge of the river Moravica.

At an altitude of 670 meters, among the clouds, is a church
dedicated to St. Elijah, and is known as the hajduk church. The
construction date of this church is unknown. According to
experts it was erected on the ruins of a Roman sentry tower but
the people believe in legends.
Legends: The popular belief is that the church flew from the
village Prilike when the Turks attempted to desecrate it, while
according to another legend, the Serbs transferred it, with the
help of God, to the top of the Gradina.

According to popular belief, a person attending
service, who is without sins, may freely walk around
the church without falling down the ravine. If anyone

THE VISOCKA SPA (VISOČKA BANJA)
You will be breath taken by the Visoka Spa while bathing at an
altitude of 600 m in water with a temperature of 27ºC. All you will
see is part of the sky surrounded by rocks and hear the murmur of
the lively river Rzav running right next to you for its own sake.
The Visoka Spa is connected with a new 40 km asphalt road with
Arilje.
The bottoms of the two pools are covered by tiny sand with
healthy bubbles constantly emerging (the water is enriched with
potassium, magnesium etc.)
The spa treats rheumatism, heart conditions, nervous diseases
and substantially improves the eyesight.
18
ARILJE
WHY IS IT
UNIQUE?
Interesting:
There is an interesting guest
book on the spa rocks. Those who
were treated in the spa inscribed
their names as a sign of
gratitude so the miracle
of this water
would never
be forgotten.
This
spa is not
like other
ones because
its water may be
consumed due to its
scent and taste free
characteristics.
Unlike the urbanized spas, this is an
oasis in the open. In its natural clothing,
surrounded by a world of vegetation and
animals, breathing with balance and
harmony.
ARILJE
19
VISOCKA SPA - ADVICE
Do not stay in the water over
20 minutes
The water is most beneficial
if you remain still in it
After leaving the pool, dress
warm right away
Do not indulge to the
charms of the Rzav whose
water is much colder than
the one from the spa
LEGEND
A local
peasant
had a sick
foal. He didn't
have the heart to
kill it, so he took it
further away from the
houses to the barely passable
Rzav canyon to let it die there. After a
few days the foal returned to the farmer
healthy. Ever since that time, people have
known about the beneficial qualities of this
spring water, they have been living longer
and bearing their old age easier by using
thewaterfromthissource.
NEARBY...
Hunting - 2,5 km from the spa is the hunting lodge of the
hunting club “Branko Đonović”, with 16 beds. You can spend the
night here during the whole hunting season which starts on
October 16 and lasts until March. The hunting game consists of
deer, rabbits, wild boar and pheasants.

ARILJE
THE GOLUBINJAK SCENIC VIEW
There are remnants of an old fortress above the Visoka Spa and
the Rzav, on a rock called the Golubinjak.
It is believed that Jerina had built this fortification but it is
undetermined whether these are medieval remains or date from
the Roman times. The view stretches far from this point and you
can enjoy the beautiful landscape and the Rzav river canyon.
THE ZIJAČA CAVE
It is located in the village Bjeluša 5 km from the Visoka Spa. A
strong spring sources from the cave powering the watermills
along the water course. The water is clear and good for drinking.
The cave is still unexplored and is a real attraction for curious
tourists.
CAREVO POLJE (THE EMPEROR'S FIELD)
The plateau Carevo polje is located on the hillsides of Okruglica in
Bjeluša. Part of the plateau is occupied by a pile of rocks the locals
call Careva gomila (the Emperor's Pile).
According to legend, some emperor's army camped here and
buried certain remains under the pile of rocks. Some believe it
was the army of Miroslav, brother of Stefan Nemanja, who
gathered the rocks to build the monastery Žuljan. According to
another story, Carevo polje was the assembly point of Lazar's
army, on their way to Kosovo.

(THE WATER CAVE)

23
A great challenge awaits adventurers 20 km from Arilje in the
Panjica canyon, on the border between the villages Brekovo and
Dobrače. At present, it is only assumed that the water mass
sourcing from the cave is actually a sinking river comprising of
several sinking springs from the Kukutnica and Okruglica zone.
The attractive entrance provides opportunities for speleologists,
divers and brave ones to examine the secrets of this natural
phenomenon just like the local curios young men who unveiled
the secret that there is a small lake in the cave depths, fenced by
rocks with a view at the sky.
If you are treasure hunters, make your way to the rock with the
Hajduk Cave, where people believe, the outcasts' treasure is
hidden. Old civilization treasure hunters will be pleased with the
remains of the old, unexplored fortification.

THE RIVER RZAV
The Rzav, which is the pearl of this area, sets off easily from
Mučanj not knowing that it will gain great force after joining the
Jamička and Presečka rivers, boldly rushing through the passes
and ravines, proudly flowing through the hills and meadows. It
grows even more after joining the rivers Bjela Rijeka and
Ljubišnica and enters the canyon visited only by brook trout
fishermen. It provides the village of Visoka with several warm and
healthy springs. Then the river Katušnica, with its waterfall in
Gostilje, joins our pearl.The Mali (Little) Rzav impatiently awaits its
namesake to rush down to the Urjak bridge to cool it down and
clearly flow through all the Arilje beaches finally infusing into the
Moravica.
For fishermen, Rzav is associated with brook and California
trout, and grayling.
For the neighboring towns, Rzav is drinking water because
Arilje generously supplies five neighboring towns with drinking
water.
For the most brave ones, Rzav provides rafting, starting from
the village Kruščica and the Orlovača canyon.
For the people of Arilje, Rzav represents our Spa center with all
its beautiful whirlpools and beaches, it is our healer, symbol of life
and growing place for all generations.
Don't be surprised if you see a girl drinking the Rzav water from
her hand, an old man scooping it with a glass or mother washing
her baby's face with it. We believe in the Rzav and its
effectiveness.
