Must-see attractions

Newborn Monument

　　These iconic block letters in downtown Pristina look a bit scrappy and worn these days, but they captured the imagination of the fledgling nation when they were unveiled on 17 February 2008, the day Kosovo declared its independence from Serbia and began its painful (and still incomplete) journey to full...

Museum of Kosovo

　　Pristina's main museum has recently reopened after extensive renovations. Displays begin back in the misty times of the Bronze Age.

The minaret collapsed during an...

Independence House of Kosovo

　　This small house opposite the stadium is devoted to former president Ibrahim Rugova and Kosovo's recent independence movement. English-speaking guides will show you around the small display, including video footage of Rugova's meetings with world leaders. ...

National Library

　　Easily one of Pristina's most notable buildings, the National Library, completed in 1982 by Croatian Andrija Mutnjakovic, has to be seen to be believed (think gelatinous eggs wearing armour). It's in the centre of a pleasant green area, one of the few things approaching a public park in the centre...
