-------------------------------
Prizren (Serbian Albanian Prizreni) is an historic city located in Kosovo at 42.23? North, 20.74? East[1]. In 2003 the city had a population of about 124,000[1]. It is the administrative capital of Prizreni District, which has an estimated population of about 178,000 and is located on the slopes of the ?ar mountain in the south-western part of the country, close to the Albanian border.
The city of Prizren has existed for at least a thousand years, becoming the seat of a bishopric under the Byzantine Empire in 1019. Its name comes from old Serbian ????????, from ???-?????, indicating fortress which could be seen from afar[2], compare with Czech Prizrenice.
It was taken by the Bulgarians in 1204 and by the Serbs in 1282. Prizren was then made the administrative capital of an Ottoman vilayet (province) covering most of present-day Kosovo. It was a prosperous trade city, benefitting from its position on the north-south and east-west trade routes across Kosovo. Serbian hero Prince Lazar Hrebeljanovi? was educated there.
