As in Montenegro, do not forget to visit the dilapidated castle High-Nehaj, which is located on the mountain of the same name, at an altitude of about 180 meters above sea level, near the town of Sutomore and Bar.

Yet in 1542 came the first mention of the fortress. "Be afraid, do not be afraid" - this is the title of the translation High Nekhay. From the side it seems that the castle is on a cliff. The winged lion emblem of the Venetian Republic, is engraved in stone above the main gate of the fortress Nehaj High.

You can only get in on the west side, where there is the entrance, the other walls impregnable. Climb directly to the input of only a winding and narrow path, which originates on the left side of the mountain. The fortress could accommodate for up to 900 people.

Here, on the highest point of the mountain High Nekhay, housed in the 13th century Church of St. Demetrius, built before the construction of the fortress. In ancient times it had two altars: the Orthodox and Catholic. To have survived only the ruins of the church.

For several centuries, the fortress passed into the possession of it to the Venetians, by the Turks, it is gaining as a result of bloody battles, so the site can see the buildings of three different cultures: Turkish, Venetian and Montenegro.
