Glubočica

Glubočica was the medieval district around Leskovac, in the basin of the South Morava. The village of Leskovac appears in a fourteenth-century charter of Stefan Dušan granting it to the monastery of Hilandar. Under Ottoman rule it became the centre of a district and the seat of a judge. Craftsmen and merchants filled its market, while mosques, baths and lodges grew beside the Christian quarters across the Veternica River.
