-------------------------------
Bar is a coastal city in Serbia and Montenegro on the Adriatic Sea. The town itself has 25,000 residents with 45,000 in the municipality of Bar. Bar is a major seaport for Serbia and Montenegro, though the harbour is somewhat difficult of access in stormy weather.
It is located in the Republic of Montenegro. Historically, Bar was under Roman, Byzantine, Turkish, Venetian, and Austrian rule before its inclusion in Montenegro by the delimitation of the Treaty of Berlin in 1878. Called Antivari, by the Venetians for its position opposite Bari in Italy, it is a catholic exempt archbishopric, that enjoys the status of primas of Dalmatia
The old town is built inland, on a strip of country running between the Adriatic Sea and the Sutorman range of mountains, overshadowed by the peak of Rumiya (5148 feet). At a few hundred yards' distance it is invisible, hidden among dense olive groves. Within, there is a ruinous walled village, and the shell of an old Venetian fortress, surrounded by mosques and bazaars; for Bar is rather Turkish than Montenegrin. The old town also has what is believed to be the oldest olive tree in the world. Its age is estimated to be about 2,500 years old.
